Help Stop the Secret Farm Bill

If we don't act now, Big Agribusiness and their powerful Congressional allies could take action that would favor commodity-based processed food and mega cotton operations at the expense of healthy food, land conservation and vital nutrition programs for 45 million struggling Americans -- half of whom are children.

They're trying to write the next farm bill and plan to slip it into law through the top-secret Super Committee process without justification, open debate or a single vote.

Not only are they shutting out food experts, health advocates, taxpayers and the rest of us from the discussion, but Big Ag's lobbyists also want to create a new handout that would guarantee income to the biggest farmers - despite their current record profits. Congress should be helping people in need, not shoveling money to mega farms.
