[[link removed]]URGENT ACTION NEEDED: We have a once-in-a-FIVE-YEAR opportunity to fight for
racial justice and worker protections in agriculture! Act before the opportunity passes! >>
[[link removed]]

Every half decade, Congress renews the Farm Bill -- massive legislation
addressing hundreds of issues in food and agriculture. The Farm Bill must be
renewed this year, providing a powerful opportunity to fight back against Big Ag
corporations and score huge victories for racial justice. But the window of opportunity is closing fast!

The Justice for Black Farmers Act aims to correct historic discrimination that
caused Black famers to lose MILLIONS of acres of land and robbed them of BILLIONS in generational wealth. The Protecting America’s Meatpacking Workers Act would expand workplace safety and health protections for workers in the often-abusive industrial agriculture industry.

We can pass both bills through the Farm Bill if we send enough messages to
Congress before it’s too late. Please, Friend, help correct historical harms and
protect workers. Take just 30 seconds to send your message to Congress before
midnight tonight!

SIGN THE PETITION
[[link removed]]In the 1910s, Black farmers owned an estimated 20 million acres of land. Since
then, due to white supremacy and racism within the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, the number of Black farmers PLUNGED 98%! Ninety. Eight. Percent.

Meanwhile, meatpacking workers are often subject to degrading and dangerous
conditions. Overworked and underpaid. At risk of SERIOUS injury! We can address both issues through the Farm Bill -- but we need your help to do
it. Tell Congress to pass a pro-racial justice, pro-worker Farm Bill!
