Time to Get Involved in VFA

[Link]With the upcoming elections drawing near, farmers need to remember the critical role that Wisconsin Farm Bureau's Political Action Committee, Volunteers for Agriculture®, plays in supporting Wisconsin agriculture.

The redrawing of state legislative maps in Wisconsin presents both significant challenges and unprecedented opportunities for farmers, farm families and rural communities. The outcome of this election will determine the makeup of our state legislature for the next decade. It is crucial that we seize this moment to ensure that the strong opinions of Wisconsin farmers and rural residents are heard in Madison.

We need to tell our Wisconsin state legislators about the challenges, opportunities, obstacles and rewards of a life in farming. They need to understand what it takes to succeed in the unpredictable world of agriculture and how their actions can impact our lives. VFA is at the forefront of this advocacy effort.

By supporting farm-friendly legislators and educating new candidates about agriculture, we can advance policies that provide farmers with new opportunities, programs, infrastructure and, ultimately, a better bottom line.

Our grassroots network is the power behind our strength. We may not be able to outspend big-money special interests, but with our grassroots leadership and the mobilization of our members, we can make a significant impact and we can win.

As a member of the Wisconsin Farm Bureau, your involvement is crucial. Your active participation in the political process and donation to VFA will be pivotal in this transformative election.

The policies and regulations passed in Madison can have a real impact on farmers' bottom lines. By supporting VFA and encouraging your friends, family and neighbors to do the same, we can shape the outcome of the upcoming election and secure a future for agriculture in Wisconsin.
