Torres’ first bill expanding farm internships passes unanimously in Senate

The future of farming is the focus of a bill that passed out of the state Senate.

Senator Nikki Torres’ first bill as a legislator supports the next generation of farmers by expanding a farm internship program.

Torres’ 15th District is a leading hop producer.

The Pasco Republican’s measure grows and solidifies the program.

The legislation passed unanimously in the Senate and is now headed to the House.
