Family
Dairies USA plays a proactive role in dairy policy and
legislative issues. Whether it is working with Local
and State elected officials or organizations with similar
interests and dedication, we make sure that agriculture
and our dairy producers have a voice. Of equal importance
is our involvement at the Federal Government level where
we strive to work with elected officials in the House
of Representatives and Senate to provide input and support
for dairy policies that matter to our dairy farmers.
We are also
a key member in the Midwest Dairy Coalition which has
a long history of providing support for regional interest
while working collectively for all dairy farmers in
the United States. As part of our Government Affairs
section of our website, we have provided links to websites
that may be of interest to you. We have also provided
current contact information for your representatives
in Government so that you may contact them directly.
While organizations such as Family Dairies USA play
a vital role in getting policy created and supporting
or not supporting issues, it is critical that grass-roots
contact is made by individuals across our region whenever
possible.
