Farmers Union Braves The Chill To Advocate For Policy

Farm & Rural Lobby Day was a success, according to Wisconsin Farmers Union. Members braved the cold this week to come to the State Capitol and talk to lawmakers about the policy priorities they established during their annual meeting. President Darin Von Ruden, a dairy farmer out of Westby, says he was happy with the turnout and the excitement in the room. He says lawmakers also look forward to meeting with their farmer constituents, but passing legislation won't be easy. He says funding on-farm efforts to combat climate change can be an especially difficult conversation.
