.@GovWesMoore on the #Keybridge: “I will not only focus on the immediate aftermath.” He says he also wants to “build a more resilient and safer state.”
My office is in close communication with U.S. Transportation @SecretaryPete Buttigieg, Baltimore @MayorBMScott, @BaltCoExec, and @BaltimoreFire as emergency personnel are on the scene following the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge.

In every bull market, there are scammers who take advantage of people who want to get involved in the market on its way up. This isn't a crypto thing; it's a tale as old as finance. 15/

Nobody breaks down the legal nuances of agriculture and environmental law policy as well as @nataglaw.
Replying to @EPA
@EPA has announced that existing stocks of #dicamba pesticides can be used over-the-top during the 2024 growing season. The order applies to dicamba that was "packaged, labeled, and released for shipment" prior to 2/6/24, when a federal court vacated the dicamba registration.

1/ Today's @FarmPolicy News Summary covers how ag groups are seeking "an order to allow farmers to use existing stocks of over-the-top (OTT) #dicamba #herbicides after a federal court this week vacated the registrations of three of those products.” farmpolicynews.illinois.edu/…

Only $33 trillion in revenues left to go!!!
Due largely to an unexpected surge in immigration, the U.S. economy will be about $7 trillion larger - & federal revenues about $1T bigger - the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said Wednesday

Solid reporting from Tom here. #dicamba #EPA
Replying to @tpolansek
"We haven't yet quite figured out what our response is to the decision itself," says Michal Freedhoff, an assistant EPA administrator. "We recognize there are some very near-term existing stocks questions we have to answer and we're definitely prioritizing those." @EPA #Dicamba

Word. The question is: How will @EPA choose to use their existing stocks authority?
FIFRA allows the EPA administrator to allow for the continued sale and use of existing stocks of cancelled or suspended chemicals. #dicamba #EPA

1) One thing that REALLY bothers me is the insistence by some groups that banning agricultural technology will help “family farms.” Saw that over and over again in NY during the debate over treated seeds. Seeing it again now with #dicamba (example below).

4) I won’t even start on how we define “family farm.” Suffice it to say, family farms are incredibly diverse and they do not always share the views. We’re blessed to live in a relatively open market where every family farm can choose the best approach for their unique operation.

5) Instead of helping encourage and celebrate that diversity, some groups want to take away options and choices. They can claim that helps “family farms,” but in reality it only helps the family farms that are aligned with their preferred production methods.
