Foundation for the Future/Dairy Security Act
As part of the efforts to garner support for the Dairy Security Act, NMPF has prepared a series of flyers that highlight different aspects of the legislation. Each flyer will be posted online for general use after it has been sent to Capitol Hill. Flyer 1 - Time to Enact a Dairy Program That Works (PDF) (JPG) Flyer 2 - Dairy Farmers Can't Afford Another 2009 (PDF) (JPG) Flyer 3 - Does This Sound Fair? (PDF) (JPG) Flyer 4 - A Dairy Program Designed to Protect Farmers and Encourage Exports (PDF) (JPG) Flyer 5 - Here's a Dairy Program That Will Help Farmers and Reduce Hunger (PDF) (JPG) Flyer 6 - The Dairy Debate is Not Farmers vs. Processors (PDF) (JPG) NMPF continues to urge dairy producers and their cooperatives to contact their U.S. Senators and tell them to support the Dairy Security Act when the 2012 Farm Bill arrives for a vote in front of the full Senate. NMPF's Dairy G.R.E.A.T. website provides an easy way to do so.
