Thanks.
Let’s starve out the idiots and cleanse the earth of this rodent vermin called congress.
I suppose China will issue a written guarantee that their food exports will be compliant?
But what does written word matter since congress cannot read anyhow!!!!!!
Idiots! Idiots IDIOTS!!!
Just read on Steny Hoyer’s website this bill is set to come up for a vote as early as tomorrow, July 28, Tuesday. The complete bill has not been released yet, there will be no amendments allowed, with 40 minutes divided by each side for debate.
Thank you I will make my phone calls hope pressure will do some good.
>> About a year ago, I talked to a young man on a flight who was just returning from an agriculture conference and shared some of the details of new regulations affecting the way that farmers small and large will have to conduct business. In many cases, the new regulations are so draconian, most small farms will have to close because the added expense CANNOT be recouped through higher market prices.
The new agriculture regulations in this bill should help make America into a Robert Mugabe-style agricultural paradise (/sarc). The big problem will be, though, when WE can’t produce enough food to feed ourselves, how will ANYONE be able to stop the looming world famine!!
This is madness!! <<
Farmer in agricultural states need to start putting pressure on their State governments to start exercising the states 10th amendment rights post haste.
I like how green the democraps are... No you can’t plant beneficial plants around crops, use pesticide instead.....
Maybe we should point this out to the green weenies.
Remember!! next time you see an Eco-weenie on the street who is asking for signatures for Greenpeace kindly or unkindly remind them about this bill and shove the facts about down their throats and tell them the Democrap congress and Senate pushed this down all of our throats.
They voted on this. It needed 2/3 to pass and only missed by 3 votes
230 dems for this and 50 repubs
see what yours did
