Strengthening Ohio’s Farms and Agriculture

Home / Issues / Strengthening Ohio’s Farms and Agriculture

During the Biden years, Congresswoman Kaptur was complicit as extreme liberals declared war on American agriculture.  The U.S. agricultural trade deficit was $21 billion in 2023 –a 4x increase over previous yearly averages, thanks to the Biden administration’s unwillingness to demand better deals for American farmers.  The Biden administration’s Green Energy agenda included restrictions on oil and natural gas production and their regulations, like the Waters of the United States, increased fuel, fertilizer, and compliance costs, reducing farmers’ profitability.

Alea will fight for Ohio’s rural communities and Ohio farmers by working to reduce Biden’s environmental and energy regulations that increase the cost of doing business. Alea will advocate for a comprehensive farm bill, promote fair trade for American farmers, fight for tax code changes to help family farms, work toward more predictable, consistent relief for farmers in the wake of natural disasters, and support rural broadband expansion.
