AmericanHort joined a coalition of over 50 agricultural organizations in urging Congress to provide economic assistance for farmers, including specialty crop growers, facing increasing and sustained financial losses. Despite recent USDA programs, significant losses remain across the horticulture sector due to prolonged high costs and market pressures.

The letter urges swift congressional action to provide meaningful relief for the specialty crop industry.
