Farm Groups to Launch ‘Enough is Enough Tour’ Ahead of Farm Bill Debates
Beginning in May, events to protest ‘checkoff programs’ will be held in at least five states, including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Kansas, Alabama, and North Dakota.
A group of 16 farmer organizations is preparing to launch a multi-state tour as Congress is about to debate the farm bill.
They are calling on Congress to pass legislation that reforms government checkoff programs and creates a “level playing field” for America’s farmers and ranchers.
