Hal Rogers didn't vote on Vote 26 Agricultural Crop Subsidies in the Freedom Index for the 115th Congress!

     Hal Rogers didn't vote on Vote 26 Agricultural Crop Subsidies in the Freedom Index for the 115th Congress. 
     The New American Magazine explained Vote 26 as follows:
     "26    Agricultural Crop Subsidies.  During consideration of the farm bill (H.R. 2), Representative Tom McClintock (R-Calif.) introduced an amendment that would have phased out agricultural crop subsidies by fiscal year 2030.
     "The House rejected McClintock's amendment on May 17, 2018 by a vote of 34 to 380 (Roll Call 194).  We have assigned pluses to the yeas because no warrant for the appropriation of crop subsidies is found in the Constitution and subsidies disrupt the free market economy."
     HAL ROGERS DID NOT VOTE ON VOTE 26 AGRICULTURAL CROP SUBSIDIES IN THE FREEDOM INDEX FOR THE 115TH CONGRESS.  WHY?  PROBABLY BECAUSE HE BELIEVES THAT IS NOT IMPORTANT WHETHER WE HAVE CROP SUBSIDIES, AND NOT IMPORTANT WHETHER WE PAY FARMERS NOT TO GROW FOOD, AND NOT IMPORTANT WHETHER WE PAY FARMERS TO GROW MORE FOOD.  NEXT TIME VOTE FOR KENNETH STEPP BECAUSE KENNETH STEPP KY-05 PLANS TO VOTE ON ALL THE ROLL CALL VOTES.
