CALL to ACTION
From the desk of the Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable Agriculture
and the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition
If you care about the health of America's soil, water, and land; promoting organic practices and conservation; helping a new generation of struggling small and mid-sized farmers get their start; rebuilding local and regional food systems; or developing new markets and healthy food access - now is the time to speak up. If you want to see a healthier, more secure, environmentally sustainable, and prosperous America - now is the time to speak up.
With this much at stake, we wanted to make sure you saw the call to action. The food and farm bill - a mammoth piece of legislation that sets the rules for the American food system every 5 years - is being decided now. The Agriculture Committee leadership proposed to rewrite the farm bill in just a few days behind closed doors. This is usually a year plus process with hearings, circulated bill drafts, mark-ups, and amendments that is being decided without your input unless you act now. Please act today for a chance you have only once every 5 years to reform our food and farming system and protect our natural resources.
Decisions made in Congress in the next few days will impact our health, environment, security, and prosperity for decades to come.
