Tell Legislators to Vote No on HB 119:

Second beef check-off in the works

Let your Senator know HB 119 – Establish the Montana Cattle Committee for a second beef check-off – needs to go back to the drawing board because it’s unclear how the additional assessment fee would benefit producers and it adds bureaucracy.

What the bill does: Provides for a politically appointed committee that would collect a second beef check-off of $1 from Montana Cattle producers upon a referendum vote.

Montana Farmers Union is opposed to the bill as currently written.
