Story County, Iowa Supervisor Jane Halliburton, on behalf of the National Association of Counties (NACo), told the U.S. Senate On June 20 that federal rural development policies need to build on the genuine intent but unfulfilled promise of the 2002 farm bill.
Halliburton, past chair of NACos Rural Action Caucus, testified before the Senate Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry Committee, chaired by Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA).
