Dear Mr. Chief Clerk:

As Chairman of the Assembly Agriculture Committee, I am forwarding this letter to you, for inclusion in the Assembly Journal, which states the intention of the committee to approve the report.
Out of 14 members on the Assembly Agriculture Committee, ten (Representatives Ott, Ainsworth, Zukowski, Otte, Hahn, Baldus, Reynolds, Springer, Wilder, and Dueholm) voted to approve the report. The four who voted not to approve the DATCP report were Representatives Ward, Skindrud, Olsen and Gronemus.
