U.S. to Provide Emergency Relief to Farmers Hurt by Trump's Trade War
---------------------------------------------------------------------

President Trump has announced up to $12 billion in emergency relief for
farmers whose sales have been hurt by the Trump administration's
escalating trade war. The Agriculture Department said it will use an
existing program to provide billions of dollars in direct payments to
farmers and ranchers as a "short-term solution."
