Help
Transform Federal Food and Farm Policy TODAY!
If
you are interested in transforming federal policies, you have
a unique opportunity
right now. The Agriculture Committee leadership in Congress
proposed to rewrite the
federal Food and Farm Bill by November 1.
The
Farm Bill is usually written every five years, involving a year-long
process
of gathering input and working through compromises. With this quick
timeline, there
will likely be budget and program cuts made with very little input
from constituents.
Many federal programs that support a fair and healthy food and farm
system are at risk.
We
at Southern SAWG will post action alerts over the next few
weeks and beyond
to let you know when a call to a legislator or other action could
make a difference.
Read
an update
on Congressional action.
Check for the latest action
alerts on the Southern SAWG website.
Or follow the action more closely with the National
Sustainable Agriculture Coalition (NSAC).
