Rep. Marshall’s Farm Bill Listening Tour coming to NW Kansas

Dr. Roger Marshall, R-Great Bend, is the First District Kansas Congressman.

OFFICE OF REP. MARSHALL

WASHINGTON, D.C.–I’m announcing my 2017 Farm Bill Listening Tour, which will be open to the public, and will focus on trade, nutrition, and all issues anticipated in the 2018 Farm Bill.

Agriculture is the lifeblood of the Big 1st. On the 2017 Farm Bill Listening Tour, I aim to discuss the concerns – and most importantly – hear the ideas of those impacted by the bill. These ideas will be immeasurably valuable as my colleagues and I begin discussion and deliberation on the next Farm Bill. My job is to be a voice for Kansans, and I intend to begin that work with the ideas of the folks I represent.

In addition to the 10 Farm Bill Listening Tour stops below, I will also hold an August Listening Tour stop in Hugoton at Pioneer Manor on August 21st at 2 p.m..
