We learned lots of things about soil regeneration and successful sustainable farm and ranch practices at the Southern Family Farms Conference last week.
Most important was what we learned about the Farm Bill, something that is addressed every five years by Congress.
LIV asks you to join us and the Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance to get a message to Congress to focus now on how to get our priorities straight. We must weather multiple food, water, and weather crises from Maui to right here in Texas. Meanwhile, President Biden is asking for an additional $24B for the war in Ukraine, to which more and more Americans are left scratching their heads as we scratch for a living.
It’s really a simple message. It’s food, not bombs.
Here’s what LIV asks you to do:
Call and meet your member of Congress about the Farm Bill in the month of August, when they are home. Make plain you urge a negotiated peace now in Ukraine and their support for the following pieces of legislation:
Meat Processing Reforms
Addressing Corporate Consolidation and Abuses
Supporting Regenerative Agriculture — more below:
