- Senate, July 12 “Supplemental Agricultural Disaster Assistance Extension Act of 2012” (S 3384) sponsored by Senator Max Baucus (D-MT)
- House, July 23 “Agricultural Disaster Assistance Act of 2012” (HR 6167) sponsored by Rep. Dave Loebsack (D-IA-2), and
- House, July 25 bill "To extend certain of the supplemental agricultural disaster assistance programs through fiscal year 2012 and to continue to fund such assistance through the Agricultural Disaster Relief Trust Fund" (HR 6192), sponsored by Rep. Jo Ann Emerson (R-MO-8).
If and how these bills could proceed through Congress, and whether a Farm Bill is linked to a disaster relief measure are uncertain, at best. To read more of their fate and how negotiations on disaster relief and the Farm Bill are playing out on Capitol Hill, see here.
