Senate backs down on AAA beneficiaries data request
The Senate agriculture committee partially backtracked from a resolution seeking all AAA beneficiaries paid $1,000 or more and limited data to recipients of $10,000 or more per contract year. Chairman Smith said names would be published for farmers earning over $16,000 in crop year respect to a commodity, while other senators doubted the scope. The panel had previously authorized reports on all payments above $1,000, but altered the plan to ease workload and speed department response.
