Take Action

We Need YOUR Voice!

Here's something you already know, every day, politicians and regulators make decisions that impact the way you farm. But here's something you may have overlooked, politics have changed a lot!  Don't feel discouraged.  You can take back your influence in Washington, Springfield, and even your own backyard with Farm Bureau's FB ACT program.

FB ACT (Farm Bureau Agricultural Contact Team) started as a group of men and women who had an interest in the legislative process.  That used to work.  Today, your voice can easily be drowned out by others speaking out against you.

When you join FB ACT, we ask that you vote and respond to action requests by emailing or calling your elected officials on key agricultural issues.  To join TEXT 'FARM' to 52886.
