The Senate also returns at 2 p.m. and will resume work on the Agriculture Reform, Food, and Jobs Act, S. 954. At 5:30 p.m. Senators are expected to hold two amendment votes.
One of them, from Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.), would require the Federal Crop Insurance Corp. to research an insurance program for alfalfa. The other, from Sens. Chris Coons (D-Del.) and Mike Johanns (R-Neb.), would increase funding for a regional food aid program from $40 million to $60 million a year.
