We all need access to healthy food during this pandemic and we can only have that if we support the farmers & workers who grow that food. Fresh Food is vital to our health and everyone needs it regardless of income.
Please help smaller farmers to survive during this pandemic.
Please sponsor these important bills to help provide good food to all of us.
Please support small farmers.
Healthy food should be a right. Let us Ban GMO’s and support Organic farming.

Unfortunately, i would also hope that these bills will lessen the use of biocides in ouragricuoltural practices. Biocides have no place in regenerative and sustainable agriculture. Unfortunately in Willapa Bay they are threatening me with using biocides and
prohibiting my ability on my land to mow on an annual basis this grass, which was instigated by the collaboration of Monsanto, the Nature Conservancy andUSFWS, with all of the elected officials signing off. COVID should make everyone aware of the fact that
chemicals in our environment are not good for anything.
What seems the problem with meat inspection, are these factories toooo Big to care ? or to follow the rules ?
and food assistance for kids and families in need ?
