Holyoke, CO – Michael Bennet, U.S. Senator for Colorado, today met with agricultural leaders and farmers from Northeast Colorado to hear their concerns in a roundtable discussion that included representatives from Colorado Wheat Growers.
“Our farmers, ranchers and rural communities must have a seat at the table as Washington discusses how it’s going to reform health care, develop new energy policy, handle the banking crisis, and so much more,” Bennet said. “Their voice is critical to ensuring that Washington’s priorities are in line with those of rural America.”
As a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, Bennet is committed to fighting for Colorado’s farmers, ranchers and rural communities.
