Hello All,


As you know, the Inflation Reduction Act provided the largest investment in Farm Bill conservation programs since the Dust Bowl. This once in a generation climate ag conservation funding came about thanks to a large, unified effort of groups and companies who fought for it. It is critical that we continue to have a unified voice in protecting this funding from cuts in the 2023 Farm Bill.

 

Please join National Wildlife Federation, National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition, Izaak Walton League of America, National Audubon Society, and Environmental Working Group in signing on to this letter in support of protecting the $20 billion for conservation and climate. With the 2023 Farm Bill around the corner, it is vital that we have a strong, unified show of support for protecting this money. This is our best opportunity in decades to meet producer demand for oversubscribed conservation programs.

 

Here is the link to the letter and form to sign on: https://forms.gle/uj9ujntzUyvssd687. We invite national as well as state, regional, and local groups to sign this letter, so please help us get the word out to your networks! Sign on deadline is February 14th.
