NRHA CEO Alan Morgan released the following statement on the House Agriculture majority's 2024 Farm Bill discussion draft:

“The National Rural Health Association (NRHA) applauds the House Agriculture Committee Majority for their work on their 2024 Farm Bill proposal, the Farm, Food, and National Security Act. We are extremely pleased to see a strong investment in rural health including several NRHA-endorsed bills incorporated into the legislation. NRHA is excited to see USDA’s Rural Hospital Technical Assistance Program authorized and expanded to include other rural health care facilities. NRHA looks forward to continuing negotiations in the House to come to a bipartisan package that strengthens rural communities.”
