Many family farmers are on the brink of collapse. Farmers Union is saying enough! Congress must act quickly and decisively – for farmers’ sake. We can solve the crisis in farm country by delivering legislative priorities that: Finish the farm bill and make it work for family farmers and ranchers, not corporate monopolies. Deliver immediate assistance for farmers facing financial uncertainty. Farmers need help now, not next year. Make farm programs work for family farmers and ranchers by eliminating loopholes and enhancing profitability. Break up monopolies by strengthening and enforcing antitrust laws. Fix trade policy to ensure trade deals help U.S. producers, not harm them. Pass permanent disaster relief and deliver fast, effective responses. Expand new markets for farmers and U.S. commodities, with a focus on next-generation biofuels and high-value products. Rebuild USDA by restoring staff and resources to support farmers. Congress’ choice is clear: Stand with America’s family farmers and ranchers or stand by while the system collapses. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-congress-stand-with-family-farmers-and-ranchers
