The farm bill framework released by Senate Ag Committee leadership is coming under fire from Republicans.

Iowa U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley says the version brought forth by chair Debbie Stabenow, a Michigan Democrat, contains a lot of proposals but few details.

“One critical detail that was left out is how exactly it’s going to be paid for.”

During a call with reporters Wednesday, Grassley said early estimates indicate the Senate farm bill would rack up about $20 billion in new spending.
