The Senate, by unanimous consent, voted Thursday to extend the 2002 Farm Bill for two weeks until May, 16 to give the conference committee more time to complete the bill. The House and the President still must act, but are expected to follow suit. The current extension of farm legislation expires this at midnight this Friday, May 2.
