Ernst Celebrates Iowa Agriculture on National Ag Day

WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) celebrated National Agriculture Day in honor of the Iowa agriculture community that works so hard to feed and fuel our world.

“Agriculture shapes our way of life in Iowa. Growing up on a farm in the Heartland, I have a deep-rooted understanding of all our farmers do to make sure folks have food on their tables, gas in their tanks, clothes in their closet, and so much more,” said Senator Ernst. “This year and every year, I am proud to celebrate National Agriculture Day to recognize our hardworking farmers and all those involved in Iowa agriculture.”
