An original resolution authorizing expenditures by the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry.

Senate Resolution 51 is a routine administrative measure that provides the necessary funding for the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry to operate during the 111th Congress. These funds allow the committee to pay for staff salaries, conduct official investigations, and hold hearings on issues such as farm policy, food safety, and rural development. By authorizing these expenditures, the resolution ensures the committee can perform its oversight duties and develop legislation that affects the nation’s agricultural economy and federal nutrition programs.
