WASHINGTON, March 30 -- Sen. James Lankford, R-Oklahoma, issued the following news release on March 28, 2023:
Senator James Lankford (R-OK) today spoke on the Senate floor about the need to protect US farmland from foreign, particularly Chinese, ownership, after an alarming increase in foreign land ownership over the past decade in Oklahoma, which appears to be due in part to an increased presence of international criminal organizations surrounding marijuana growth in the state.
