101 Reasons Not to be Discouraged by The (Food and) Farm Bill After all of these months of reading and learning, and rallying and writing, it's hard not to be discouraged by the Farm Bill. A disappointingly familiar version passed in the House this summer, and now the Farm Bill is hanging out in the Senate, a place where (a cynic might say) good ideas go to die. BUT!

We are building knowledge and momentum for the NEXT one. In Washington, thinking ahead is important.
