Bill Benefits Eligibility
One resource for farmers that should never
be in jeopardy is Social Security and disability benefits.
Yet small farmers currently still have to cope with the possibility
of losing eligibility for these important programs if they
have a series of unprofitable seasons. I am very pleased that
the Senate version of the Farm Bill includes provisions similar
to my Farmer Tax Fairness Act, which helps ensure farmers
and other self-employed individuals are able to remain eligible
for Social Security and disability benefits.
