I want you to meet the folks who will be joining us:
|
|
🌾 Jamie Ager is a fourth-generation farmer in Western North Carolina running for Congress in NC-11. Jamie runs Hickory Nut Gap Farm and decided to step up after seeing local leaders fail to respond to Hurricane Helene.
|
|
🐄 Rebecca Cooke grew up on her family's dairy farm in Wisconsin. She's a small-business owner and waitress running in WI-03 — one of our best chances to win a seat this year after she nearly won it in 2024.
|
|
And leading the way is Senator Jon Tester, a third-generation farmer who still works his land in Big Sandy, Montana. He brings a lifetime of experience as a teacher and state legislator to this conversation about rural America.
|
|
Of course, I’ll be there too.
|
|
A second-generation dairy farmer from Lisbon, right here in the North Country. I know what it means to work before sunrise, worry about the weather, care for your neighbors, and fight to keep a family farm going.
|
|
Our communities deserve leaders who understand that life because they’ve lived it.
|
|
I’d love for you to join us for this conversation about rural America, what it takes to compete in rural districts, and how we can build a Democratic Party that earns the trust of rural voters.
