Fly-In
National Farmers Union organizes legislative fly-ins usually in the spring and fall and as vital issues come before Congress for a vote. These fly-ins allow our members to gather in the nation’s capital and help acquaint members of Congress with the challenges family farmers and ranchers currently face across rural America.
These visits provide an excellent opportunity for producers to tell lawmakers firsthand how current government policy impacts them and others in their area. Fly-in participants can share a personal story and put a human face on how decisions in Washington, D.C., affect both producers and consumers across the United States.
Fall 2010 Fly-In: September 13-15
Please contact your state Farmers Union for more information.
Registration is due August 12.
