UPDATE 9/18/2012: THANK YOU! News just officially broke that Congress WILL NOT pass that corrupt, trillion-dollar so-called farm bill that goes 78%+ to FOOD STAMPS! Your activism carried the day! Thank you!
The Senate recently passed a disastrous $970 billion farm bill that was really a welfare bill – 78 percent of the spending went for food stamps, which are now sent to a shocking 1 out of every 7 Americans.
Now the House is working on its own version, and it’s not much better. It spends almost as much – about $957 billion – and fully 79 percent of that is for food stamps!
Republicans may help Democrats spend $756 billion on food stamps over the next 10 years. Is that what this Congress was elected to do? Lock in Obama's legacy of 1 in 7 Americans being on food stamps?
Please fill out the form to urge the House: "VOTE NO on the bloated Farm Bill!"
Your message will be delivered directly to your member of Congress.
