Friend –
The agricultural industry touches the lives of every American family, and it’s supported by the federal Farm Bill which is set to expire soon.
The next Farm Bill includes robust funding that will help our farmers use the latest technologies to decrease their contributions to water pollution and even help curb climate change. But we could see that funding threatened in negotiations.
We need every member of Congress to hear from their constituents on this. Your voice can make a difference in ensuring that this important legislation meets the needs of our farmers, communities, and future generations, so reach out to your lawmaker today and urge them to support a pro-conservation Farm Bill.
Farmers have depended on the Farm Bill for nearly 100 years. But farming doesn’t look the same today as it did back in the 1930s. As farmers face new challenges, the Farm Bill needs to change. That’s why we’re pushing Congress to pass a Farm Bill that will help farmers invest in new technologies that will cut costs, increase crop yields, improve water quality, and curb climate pollution.
It’s a crucial piece of legislation that provides support for voluntary, incentive-based programs that help ensure that our farmers can continue to produce the food that sustains our nation and play a vital role in protecting our environment and mitigating the impacts of climate change.
Your voice can make a difference in ensuring that this important legislation meets the needs of our farmers, communities, and future generations – reach out to your lawmaker today and urge them to support the Farm Bill.
Thanks for all you do for our movement,
