Easing Requirements on Farm Vehicles

On Tuesday, Senators Roger Marshall (R-Kansas) and Jon Ossoff (D-Georgia) introduced the Covered Farm Vehicle Modernization Act, which aims to help farmers by easing requirements to allow them to use personal trucks and vehicles to move products across state lines.  Specifically, the bill expands and modernizes the exemptions for “Covered Farm Vehicles” and removes extra regulatory red tape regarding Department of Transportation registration and fuel tax licensing requirements.
