“This bipartisan group of leaders recognizes that U.S. farmers can be part of the climate solution,” said Elizabeth Gore, senior vice president of political affairs at EDF Action. “This legislation paves the way for producers to generate additional revenue from lowering emissions and providing climate benefits while also building resilience and strengthening our food supply. The upcoming reauthorization of the Farm Bill provides a tremendous opportunity to build on this success, and we look forward to continued partnership with them to get it done.”
