Tax abatements, renewable energy, feral hogs and transportation were among the topics of proposed policy resolutions discussed by the Texas Farm Bureau (TFB) Resolutions Committee November 7-8 in Waco.
The committee, comprised of 41 TFB members representing Texas agriculture, spent two days reviewing, deliberating and consolidating over 220 resolutions to both state and national policies proposed by county Farm Bureaus across the state.
“We were well represented on the committee. There were many topics discussed, and we went painstakingly through our policy book,” Pat McDowell, TFB vice president and chair of the Resolutions Committee, said.
“We talked about tax abatements, solar, renewable energy, support for ethanol and many other transportation issues and animal health issues. There was a myriad of issues that came through, and they were all discussed at length.”
