Biden’s new climate plan will strip Montana of a vital industry and bankrupt our ranches
Senator Jon Tester (D) wears his agricultural credentials on his sleeve, eagerly relaying to Montana’s farmers and ranchers each campaign how much he supports ag producers, considering he is one. Tester’s family runs an organic farm near Big Sandy, where he pops in to take campaign photos every half-decade or so. But with Biden’s new climate orders in place, the days of Montana’s cattle ranchers being able to conscientiously vote Democrat may soon be over.
Montana’s farming and ranching industry accounts for more than 3.6 billion dollars in revenue each year, and is the second-largest segment of our economy, just behind tourism. While ranchers only make up 5% of the state’s population, they create 17% of the state’s economy. These jobs employ more than 52 thousand people in Montana, or roughly 10% of the workforce.
However, in the name of saving the planet, Joe Biden wants to end 90% of America’s beef consumption and 50% of all meat consumption, over-all...

No enumerated power.
Ignore the federal and refuse to obey its lawless commands.
The entire lot should be swinging from tress.
Yep, here we go. Ocasio-Cortez says he we have to overhaul farming and ranching. So we are expected to obey her decrees, as filtered through Biden and Harris and the gang.
What the heck will this do to the fast food industry?
They will need all that ranch land for the 900,000 square miles of solar panels the Green New Deal needs.
And people in Montana still vote for demonrats.
Big Brother has increased the beef ration to 4 lbs per year.
I can eat more than 4 pounds in one sitting.
That'll go over like a lead balloon.
Tester (D) is a fairy. He knew this was coming.
There is hope yet for all those ostrich farmers!
They can take my steak from my cold dead hands. Not until then!
Exactly. The ‘commerce clause’ was never intended to allow federal meddling like this. They have to be slapped back into their very limited constitutional boundaries, regardless if they like it.
Amazingly, Quark on DS9 summed up what happens when the State stops Big Macs (substitute Americans as appropriate):
Quark : Let me tell you something about Humans, Nephew. They're a wonderful, friendly people, as long as their bellies are full and their holosuites are working. But take away their creature comforts, deprive them of food, sleep, sonic showers, put their lives in jeopardy over an extended period of time and those same friendly, intelligent, wonderful people... will become as nasty and as violent as the most bloodthirsty Klingon. You don't believe me? Look at those faces. Look in their eyes.Should bidet even TRY to limit beef he will be physically torn to shreds. Not figuratively. Physically.
Southern half of Missouri is cattle farm country. I drive by hundreds/thousand of head of cattle on my way to one of the three closest towns.
I’ve got meat goats because I don’t have enough room for cattle so I’m good to go for red meat. The dems wouldn’t dare mess with meat goats because Muslims and Hispanics eat goat.
And a banana for every person who waits in line.
(Thunderous Applause)
I think I'm in real trouble here.
I am on a no carb diet. I eat 4 pounds of beef a week. I do eat nuts and cheese and green vegetables and pork and chicken and lamb.
