Congresswoman Suzan DelBene spent time with local dairy farmers near Monroe on Thursday, Aug. 4, presenting a bill called the Agriculture Environmental Stewardship Act. A cosponsor on the bill, DelBene serves on the House Agriculture Committee and is the co-chair of the Congressional Dairy Caucus, a group of house members tasked with representing the interests of dairy farmers. The bill, called House Bill 5489, would make biogas and nutrient recovery systems like at Qualco eligible for a 30 percent investment tax credit that could help cover capital costs. |
