Mississippi's @SenHydeSmith recently highlighted expanding access to homeownership in rural America in the @StarkvilleDaily . Farm Credit is grateful for her support as original cosponsor of the FARM Home Loans Act, a bill that would update outdated population eligibility limits from 2,500 to 10,000.
“I cosponsored the FARM Home Loans Act so Farm Credit can serve more rural buyers in towns larger than the outdated 2,500-person cap.”
