May 1 Domestic Call

Farm Bill Update:

An agreement has pretty much been reached prior to the May 2 deadline. The issue now is the maximum income levels for farm commodity payments. Bush has threatened to veto the bill if the limit is set too high. Senator Grassley is meeting with Bush this afternoon to discuss the farm bill. We may be on the verge of having a new farm bill!
