One of the new members of the Senate Agriculture Committee may be a short-timer.

“I welcome Senators Steve Daines from Montana and Jeff Sessions from Alabama to the Agriculture Committee,” said Sen. Pat Roberts (R-KS) who was selected to continue as chairman of the committee. “Their home states represent an important share of agriculture production in the United States and are welcome additions to the agriculture posse.”

However, since President-elect Trump has nominated Senator Sessions to be U.S. Attorney General, so once he is confirmed by the Senate, he will obviously have to be replaced by another senator on the committee.

Roberts is also pleased that Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) will continue as Ranking Member since they will be writing another Farm Bill this year. “We have a proven track record of success in finding common ground on polarizing issues,” said Roberts. “We have written a Farm Bill before, and we’ll do it again.”
