Shaheen Introduces Crop Insurance Reform Bill That Would Save Taxpayers More Than $40 Billion

"I'm proud to introduce commonsense legislation that would protect taxpayers from footing the bill for wasteful subsidies to insurance companies and large agri-businesses that don't really need the help, without reducing support for farmers who need it," said Shaheen. "By enacting long-overdue reforms, we can save taxpayers billions of dollars while fueling a resilient agricultural economy."
