Trump announces $12 billion aid package for farmers

President Donald Trump on Monday announced a $12 billion farm aid package. Most of the aid — $11 billion — will be directed toward crop farmers through one-time payments under the Farmer Bridge Assistance program, a White House official told CNN ahead of the announcement. The rest will go to farmers whose crops fall outside the umbrella of the assistance program. “This money would not be possible without tariffs,” Trump said at a roundtable at the White House, while both Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent touted the president’s commitment to farmers. CNN's Kristen Holmes reports from the White House, and John Berman speaks with farmer Caleb Ragland, president of the American Soybean Association. #CNN #News
