Update on Key Political
Issues Affecting Agriculture

Wednesday, March 31, 2010

U.S. Senator Pat Roberts
R-KS
A fourth generation Kansan from Dodge City, Senator Pat Roberts' service to the people of Kansas spans more than two decades.  First as an eight-term U.S. Congressman from Kansas' First District and now in his third term as United States Senator, Roberts has built a reputation as a leader in national security and defense issues, agriculture, and health care.  He is an advocate of a strong education system, free and fair trade policies, increased investment in science and technology, a focused foreign policy and a strong military - all of which are necessary to keep Kansas competitive in today's rapidly evolving global marketplace.

Senator Roberts' work on behalf of America's farmers and ranchers is well-known.  The House Agriculture Committee Chairman from 1995-1997, then Congressman Roberts led the reform of outdated federal farm policies.  His advocacy has continued in the Senate as a key member of the Senate Agriculture Committee.  In 2000, he wrote sweeping reforms to the federal crop insurance program, and he served on the House/Senate Farm Bill conference in 2007.  He advocates a more cohesive and aggressive U.S. trade policy and has called for reform of unilateral trade sanctions.  He has also fought hard to regain access to overseas markets for U.S. beef exports. 
We are pleased to announce U.S. Senator Pat Roberts (R-KS) will be joining us on Wednesday, March 31 for the Council's April Luncheon Meeting with an "Update on Key Political Issues Facing Agriculture."
