These funding freezes aren’t just numbers—they’re real farmers, real families, and real businesses at risk. Congress must act now to restore USDA conservation funding & reimburse farmers for awarded grants! 🧵4/4 @SecRollins @RepLaMalfa @SenAdamSchiff @RepAdamGrayCA @RepJimCosta.

A Fresno County organic raisin farmer spent $40K expecting $60K in grant support for water & soil health. Now payments are frozen, leaving him in financial uncertainty. Congress must restore funding & honor commitments to farmers! 🧵2/4 #ValleyFirst @RepAdamGrayCA.
