P A I D A D V E R T I S E M E N T RELENTLESS LITIGATION THREATENS FUTURE OF AMERICAN AGRICULTURE American agriculture is approaching a breaking point. Farmers are already facing a number of challenges, including low commodity prices and trade uncertainty. And farm bankruptcies were up 55% last year. Threatening to make matters worse is a campaign of meritless lawsuits, activist state regulators, and false attacks on the tools farmers depend on most to grow the food, fuel, and fiber we all need. The wave of litigation targeting agriculture is based on a single outlier report by a World Health Organization subagency that has been refuted by more than 1,500 safety studies and every leading health regulator in the world. While trial lawyers make a fortune, farmers are about to be hung out to dry. That’s why it’s time to take action. Absent legislative or other interventions to reinforce existing product labeling rules, America’s food security and rural economies will be under even more pressure that will be felt at every supermarket, restaurant, gas station, and dinner table in America. Farmers simply cannot keep their yields high and their costs low without weed-fighting tools like glyphosate. Think grocery prices are high now? Research shows that food inflation could more than double if these tools are allowed to be litigated away. This is a real crisis, but we have the power to fix it. We urge elected officials to stand with farmers over the litigation industry and anti-ag activists. The Modern Ag Alliance is a coalition of more than 100 agricultural organizations advocating for U.S. farmers’ access to essential crop protection tools to ensure a stable, affordable food supply. Lawmakers: Pass legislation to ensure the federally approved label is the law. ControlWeedsNotFarming.com Paid for by Modern AG Alliance ACT NOW
