U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley said this week he doesn’t think farmers “have anything to worry about,” given a federal judge’s order to lift the government’s broad freeze on spending. The administration's appeal of the order was denied Tuesday.
But Aaron Lehman, a central Iowa farmer who is president of the Iowa Farmers Union, isn’t convinced that the administration will comply.
The new president’s resistance to paying the federal government’s obligations has some farmers concerned the administration also may not honor Congress’ decision in December to allocate $31 billion to farmers struggling with a two-year economic downturn and damage from extreme weather.
