Action Request: Increased Funding for COVID-19 Relief for Agriculture

06/02/2020 @ 3:00 pm

Write your member of Congress and urge passage of the COVID-19 Relief Package! Please encourage your member of Congress to pass the next CARES ACT and prioritize agricultural issues to help steer farmers through this crisis.

 

We are asking Congres to increase funding for USDA's Commodity Credit Corporation, provide direct payments to all farmers impacted by COVID-19, allocate funding for the humane and safe disposal of depopulated hogs, provide flexibility to help farmers restructure USDA loans, and to provide assistance to the biofuel industry.

 

Be sure to customize the provided message to relay how COVID-19 has affected your farm and how prioritizing agriculture in the next COVID-19 package will help keep your farm afloat.
