"Federal relief is now within reach for New Jersey farmers. After an April cold snap dealt millions of dollars in losses to farms across our state, I declared a State of Emergency and wrote to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, urging a Disaster Designation for New Jersey. Through a whole-of-government recovery effort, we secured it for all 21 counties."
