- In 1997, John Kasich voted in favor of an amendment to an agricultural bill that would have prevented any funds gained from the bill from being used to subsidize crop insurance for tobacco. The amendment modified HR 2160, which was entitled, "Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 1998."[1][2]
- In 1996, Kasich voted in favor of amendments that would have phased out price support programs for peanuts and sugar. However, he voted against a similar amendment for dairy products such as butter, powdered milk, and cheese.[3][4]
