In the past year, Wisconsin lost 602 dairy farms. That’s why I’m working to make sure the final #FarmBill18 improves risk management tools for dairy farmers and gives them the tools they need to meet these challenging times.

Today, Congress started work on the final #FarmBill18. I’m urging my colleagues to get the job done on a bipartisan farm bill that supports our dairy farmers, levels the playing field so organic farmers can compete & gives farmers in crisis more support.pic.twitter.com/UlxUhJbWZt

Read the letter in the tweet. It advocates for a “crack down on fraudulent organic products being imported into the U.S.” and ensures our organic farmers are not “being undercut by substandard imports that don’t meet the exacting standards our farmers abide by.”

U all have already given almost $5 billion bailout to farmers this year. Hundreds of millions going to dairy farmers. Expecting billions more in a few more months. How about Democrats stop cooperating with Republican bills. Bipartisanship is not a one-way street to re-election.

Wow, heavy slant to dairy farmers there. For those allergic to cow milk, this is not cool. What would help is if 100% of SNAP recipients, not just those with children or those who are elderly, but 100% of them, could get vouchers or tokens for Farmer's Markets.
