ONALASKA â A group of Republican lawmakers and local farmers spoke June 28 regarding concerns they have with the industry, ahead of a visit from President Joe Biden. The president planned to focus on agriculture and infrastructure topics. The group expressed concerns regarding some new Biden proposals such as the increased taxes on inherited wealth â sometimes known as the âdeathâ or âheritageâ tax â as well as the effects of environmental regulations, workforce shortages, supply-chain issues, increases in technology costs and more. Derrick Van Orden, R-Prairie du Chien, a candidate for Wisconsinâs 3rd Congressional District, said heâs taking about seven key issues raised by farmers back to his staff to find solutions.
