Urgent call for farm bill passage before elections
In a race against the upcoming U.S. elections, the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) is making concerted efforts to secure the passage of the farm bill—a lifeline for the nation's farming communities. This bill is more than policy; it's a necessity for the survival and economic stability of American farmers.
This fall, NCGA is facilitating a major advocacy event by bringing farmers to Capitol Hill to directly lobby for the farm bill's passage. This move comes as a strategic endeavor to highlight the urgency of the situation to lawmakers.
The NCGA has initiated an extensive advertising campaign. This includes digital ads, strategic placements in key locations such as Reagan National Airport, and spots on major national news outlets, all designed to underline the critical role of corn growers in the U.S. economy.
Additionally, the NCGA is strengthening its grassroots advocacy efforts. It encourages its network of farmers and supporters to engage with their representatives to ensure that the farm bill moves forward without delay.
As election day draws near, the urgency for legislative action becomes increasingly acute. The NCGA’s campaign combines targeted advertising with robust grassroots efforts, laying the groundwork over the past two years. This comprehensive approach is aimed at ensuring the immediate passage of the farm bill, highlighting the collective voice of the agricultural sector: to enact the farm bill now for a secure farming future.
The NCGA continues to urge everyone within the agricultural community to join their advocacy efforts. By uniting voices, the agricultural sector aims to ensure its sustainability and economic health through timely legislative action.
