Lo están haciendo de nuevo: las grandes empresas cárnicas quieren expulsar a los pequeños agricultores de la cría de cerdos. El proyecto de ley LB 176 eliminaría la prohibición de Nebraska sobre la propiedad de cerdos por parte de las empresas cárnicas. Y pueden estar seguros de que después irán a por el ganado vacuno.
The bill has been prioritized by Senator Schilz, and it will be on the agenda today. We beat them last year, and we will need your voice to beat them again!
Can you lend your voice to help us defeat this bill? Here is how you can help:
Call your Senator! Let them know you stand with family farmers in opposition to packer ownership of livestock. Let them know you are opposed to LB 176 and that farmers should own hogs, not packers!
Find your Senator's information here: http://nebraskalegislature.gov/senators/senator_find.php
Let us know if you call.
In solidarity for family farmers!
Traci
