Tonight, the House of Representatives came together across the aisle to pass a continuing resolution to fund the U.S. government through March 2025. This resolution is expected to pass the Senate, therefore averting a government shutdown that would have impacted families, travelers, national parks, public servants, and more ahead of the Christmas holiday.

EEN Board Member, Ron Vos, discusses how Christian farmers can apply a Christian worldview to their farming practices and illustrates how faith and farming should not be mutually exclusive.

As evangelicals, we are deeply concerned that the year-end supplemental spending bill currently fails to include both immediate economic assistance and bipartisan-supported conservation program investments that will unlock billions more in immediate economic aid for our farmers. We now call on our top congressional leadership to come back to the negotiating table immediately to deliver the support our farm families, rural communities, and God’s creation need this Christmas. We cannot leave our farmers behind.
