Upstate farmers pay the price for Josh Riley’s Shutdown

When Josh Riley voted to shut down our government, he also voted to hurt our food and agricultural supply. Recent reports show that farmers are growing increasingly concerned that the government shutdown will impede their ability to harvest. 

From the ability to plan longterm, to the access to important information from government resources like FSA, farmers are getting left out in the cold while trying to not only provide for their own families but everyone else’s family as well. 

“Josh Riley’s irresponsible vote to shut down the government is reverberating in every part of our country. It is high time he stops putting illegal immigrants over the American people and works to reopen the government.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
