U.S. Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-Ind.) Monday met with Hoosier farmers to share an update on tax reform and discuss their priorities for a tax code overhaul and the upcoming farm bill.
“Hoosier farmers are the backbone of our economy, and tax reform is critical to making sure they can stay competitive in the global economy and continue investing in future growth,” Congresswoman Walorski said. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to hear directly from our local farmers about the challenges they face and how we can work together to help family farms thrive.”
The meeting, which took place at the Kewanna farm of Fulton County Farm Bureau president Joe Rude, included more than two dozen Indiana Farm Bureau members from across the 2nd District. Congresswoman Walorski and the farmers discussed a wide range of topics, including tax reform, regulatory relief, and the 2018 Farm Bill.
As a member of the House Ways and Means Committee, Walorski is working with her colleagues and the Trump administration on comprehensive legislation to overhaul the nation’s tax code for the first time in 31 years.
Walorski represents the 2nd Congressional District of Indiana, serving as a member of the House Ways and Means Committee.
