Early next week, please call your Senators. The Dems set it up for a last-minute exemption of ‘family’ farms to get the greenie vote. Some of them have been fooled, for they’ll still be included.

Whoe is going to support all the Amish & Mennonites, etc, who raise food on their farms, which they then sell to others?
