           (2) continuing to hold those funds risks putting
         significant financial strain on those farmers, agriculture
         producers, and rural small businesses because of their
         inability to recoup funding to which they are legally
         entitled; and
           (3) at a time when the rural economy of the United States
         needs financial certainty, the Federal Government should not
         be sending more shockwaves through the rural economy and food
         producers.
