WASHINGTON – During Women’s History Month and National Agriculture Week, U.S. Senators Tina Smith (D-Minn.) and Joni Ernst (R-Iowa)—both members of the Senate Agriculture Committee—have just received the support of every single female senator for their resolution designating today, March 24, as “National Women in Agriculture Day” to honor “the countless women who help agriculture prosper both at home and abroad.”
Today, the senators are pushing the Senate to unanimously adopt their bipartisan measure, a process known as “hotlining.”
The senators introduced the resolution earlier this week. Now, their bipartisan resolution has the support of every female senator and a total of 59 cosponsors.
