U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany has reintroduced legislation that would eliminate most subsidies for solar and wind energy projects on farm land. The measure is titled Future Agricultural Retention and Management (FARM) Act. Tiffany, R-Minocqua, said he doesn’t want land that is producing food to be taken out of production so it can instead produce energy.

This week, House Republicans took the first step to ensure President Trump’s America First agenda is implemented by passing a budget blueprint to kick-start the reconciliation process.

Rep. Tom Tiffany, R-Wis., is introducing legislation on Thursday, shared first with Fox News Digital, to end federal funding of renewable subsidies for wind and solar development on agricultural lands. The bill, titled the Future Agriculture Retention and Management (FARM) Act, would not prevent developers from building wind turbines or solar panels, but rather end the use of federal funds to encourage such projects.

It’s only been one month since President Trump has been in office, but he’s already delivering results directly to you. After four years of weak leadership and skyrocketing costs, America is already stronger, safer, and more prosperous.

Fifty years ago, the Endangered Species Act was created to protect species on the brink of extinction and put them on the path to recovery. It was a noble effort, but unfortunately, it’s been hijacked by the radical environmental lobby and activist judges who use it as a weapon to block common-sense wildlife management.
