The McNary-Haugen Bill aimed to assist American farmers by establishing a system of price supports for agricultural products. It sought to stabilize farm prices and prevent the economic distress that many farmers faced during the 1920s and 1930s. The bill proposed the government buy surplus crops and sell them at a loss to help maintain higher prices for farmers. Although it was introduced multiple times, it ultimately failed to pass in Congress.
