Statements on Introduced Bills and Joint Resolutions
This was a series of Senate statements on newly introduced bills rather than a debate on one measure. Senator Padilla introduced several farm-related bills: one to fund and staff an Agriculture Department farmworker coordinator position, one to create an office dedicated to farm and food workers, one to phase in overtime pay for farmworkers over four years, and one offering payments to dairy and livestock producers for manure management practices that reduce methane emissions. Senator Reed, joined by several colleagues, introduced the Insider Trading Prohibition Act, which would write a statutory definition of insider trading into law, saying current law leaves the offense undefined. Senator Schumer asked that the text of a bill amending water infrastructure and desalination laws be printed in the Record.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
