To amend the Commodity Credit Corporation Charter Act to authorize the use of Commodity Credit Corporation funds for emergency assistance to dairy producers in the case of livestock relocation and feed crop losses due to natural disasters, and for other purposes.
This bill amends the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) Charter Act to authorize CCC funds for emergency assistance to dairy and livestock producers. It directly affects dairy and livestock producers who suffer losses from natural disasters, specifically covering costs for livestock relocation, shelter, and feed crop losses. The key provision adds a new section (h) to the CCC Act, enabling the use of CCC funds for these targeted disaster-related expenses. The assistance is triggered by natural disasters, with no additional eligibility criteria specified in the bill text.
