Provide USDA block grants to Florida growers after disasters

Rick Scott says he will continue fighting to pass his Block Grant Assistance Act. The bill would authorize the U.S. Department of Agriculture to issue block grants to Florida growers affected by recent natural disasters. Scott says the bill has been blocked multiple times because it did not include funding for Ukraine.

Context: The passage does not specify the amount of funding or how grants would be allocated.
