> On Wednesday, June 22, there will be a national call-in day to President Obama and the White House to finally implement rules that are proposed within the GIPSA administration in the USDA. These are necessary and long overdue rules to help level the playing field for small and mid-size family farmers from some of the worst abuses of the meat packing industry. We are working to generate thousands of calls to the White House on the 22, exactly one year since when the rules were introduced, to finally implement the proposed rules. Here is info on the call-in day and the issue:
