# Farm Bill Changes on Deck for Democrats Following Midterm Wins

> Democrats, buoyed by their midterm victory, are preparing to push for changes to the farm bill, including revisiting food assistance cuts and reconsidering Trump administration agricultural policies. The Senate Agriculture Committee advanced its version 12-11 in September, and the House passed its version (H.R. 7567) in April. Both chambers must still reconcile their differences.

## Why it matters

Changes to SNAP funding and farm support would shape future US crop subsidy and food assistance spending, but the outcome is uncertain and has no immediate effect on commodity prices.
