Congressman Jeb Hensarling

Representing the 5th District of Texas

Agriculture

As the son and grandson of farmers, and having grown up working on my family’s farm, I understand the challenges faced by agriculture producers. Throughout my career, I have consistently supported agricultural producers on the issues they care about most, like fighting for a permanent repeal of the death tax, increasing American energy production to drive down the cost of fuel and feed, fighting against burdensome environmental regulations, expanding access to markets abroad for American agricultural products, and protecting and respecting private property and individual rights.
