Dear Supporter,<\/p>\n

No more elections.\u00a0 No more endless campaign commercials, debates, and discussions.<\/p>\n

Finally, Congress is back on Capitol Hill \u2013 let\u2019s hope they\u2019re ready to get to work!<\/p>\n

What\u2019s on the legislative agenda for the lame duck session?\u00a0 Together, we can make sure the 2012 Farm Bill is on that list.<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong> Because there\u2019s too much at stake for it to get left behind \u2013 including the future of healthy farms, food, and people for our nation.<\/p>\n

Yesterday we delivered over 20,000 signatures <\/strong>to Congress from farmers, ranchers, and concerned citizens calling for an equitable, sustainable 2012 Farm Bill.\u00a0 But we\u2019re not finished yet!\u00a0 It\u2019s time to drive that message home.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Join us on this national day of action!\u00a0 Make one call today (and ask one friend to join you!)<\/strong>, and together, we can make sure that Congress finishes their work on a 2012 Farm Bill – one that invests<\/strong> in healthy farms, food, and people; protects<\/strong> our precious air, soil, and water; and reforms <\/strong>farm subsidies and levels the playing field.<\/p>\n

Making a call is simple and takes only moments.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Can you imagine the impact we\u2019ll have with thousands of calls flooding into Congress in only one day?\u00a0 We\u2019ll be making a unified statement \u2013 one that Congress can\u2019t ignore:\u00a0 We want a farm bill done this year, and we want it done right. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thank you for all you do,<\/p>\n
