John – When a tractor breaks down in the middle of harvest season, farmers don’t have the luxury of waiting weeks or paying thousands of dollars to get it fixed. They need to be able to grab their tools, make the repair, and get back to work.
That’s why Marie introduced the Freedom for Agricultural Repair and Maintenance (FARM) Act, a bipartisan bill that guarantees farmers the right to repair their own equipment.
Will you add your name in support of Marie’s work to protect farmers’ independence and right to repair?
Big manufacturers are locking farmers out of their own toolboxes – restricting access to the manuals, software, and parts needed to make basic fixes to their own equipment. For many small family farms, that’s the difference between staying in business and going under.
Marie knows that in America, we respect farmers, we respect stewardship, and we respect self-determination. While running the auto repair shop, she’s seen firsthand how unfair it is when corporate interests tell people they can’t fix their own tools. She’s fighting to make it right.
The FARM Act would restore balance by making sure farmers have access to what they need: the right parts, tools, and information to keep their equipment running and their farms producing.
It’s common sense, and it’s long overdue.
Sign on now to support Marie’s bipartisan effort to guarantee farmers the freedom to fix what they own:
When we stand up for our farmers, we stand up for independence, self-reliance, and the backbone of rural America.
