Farm bill heads to House, still not a sure bet

WASHINGTON — One down, one to go, area farm group leaders say. As expected, the U.S. Senate on June 10 approved 66-27 a new federal farm bill. That clears the way for the U.S. House to take up its own version of the legislation, expected this week. But farm group leaders worry that the farm bill — the centerpiece of U.S. food and agricultural policy — faces a greater challenge in the House than it did in the Senate.

House kills K-12 funding, property tax relief bill on second try

BISMARCK -- Reversing a vote from Thursday, House lawmakers today defeated Gov. Jack Dalrymple’s proposal to increase state aid to K-12 school districts while providing about $714 million in property tax relief. Lawmakers spent the first hour of their last legislative day debating House Bill 1319, arguing whether it had the right provisions to provide property tax relief, though the bill’s supporters continually said it was an education funding bill, not a tax relief bill.
