Sen. Salazar Statement on Bush Veto Threat of Farm Bill

WASHINGTON, DC – Today, United States Senator Ken Salazar released the following statement in response to President Bush’s announcement that he will veto the Farm Bill that Congress is expected to pass in the coming week.

“I am very disappointed in President Bush, who has announced that he will veto the Farm Bill. That decision is a slap in the face to those who care about America’s food security and to America’s farmers and ranchers.”
