NEW Op-Ed: Roger Marshall’s right on animal welfare. Pork producers should follow him (By @John_Cleveland and @MartyIrby Via The @KansasCityStar) Learn More: https://t.co/9dVUUiklAI #FarmBill

🚨 KEEP OUT! China's pork cartel is trying to takeover America's agricultural standards. Help protect our family farmers by calling your U.S. Senators TODAY.

Urge them to VOTE NO on any amendment to add EATS / "Save Our Bacon" Act language into the Farm Bill! - [phone]

[Farm Action Fund @FarmActionFund]

Great to see and hope our Iowa Senators listen to our independent farmers!!

[Marty Irby @MartyIrby]

🚨 NEW: Proposition 12 / "Save Our Bacon Act" is one of the biggest unresolved fights about the Farm Bill.

If the Farm Bill includes the SOB language, it would override state livestock confinement laws like California Proposition 12.

"Save Our Bacon, or SOB, would override state and local laws like California’s Prop 12, which bans the sale of pork, chicken, and veal products that come from farms using the most extreme forms of animal confinement, such as gestation crates for hogs."

Happy Independence Day to all of America's family farmers! Here's to another 250 years of freedom. God Bless America! #CompetitiveMarkets

"Supporters portray the Save Our Bacon Act as a solution to conflicts between state agricultural regulations. In reality it would represent one of the most sweeping federal intrusions into state authority in recent memory." @John_Cleveland @WilberforceInst https://t.co/atpB9OXuyo

[Competitive Markets @OCM_tweets]

Senate panel rightly omits Save Our Bacon from farm bill:

"Sens. @ChuckGrassley and @SenJoniErnst of Iowa now face an important choice." - Resist any urge to add these controversial provisions back into the legislation!

[John Connor Cleveland @John_Cleveland]

Iowans have consistently insisted that the state, not Washington or outside interests, should decide how Iowa conducts its elections.

The same principle is at stake with Save Our Bacon.

Don't let the U.S. Senate sell-out America's family farmers to the CHINA-owned pork cartel! Call your Senators (202.224.3121) and tell them to OPPOSE the "Farm Security and Farm Protection Act" (aka the EATS/"Save Our Bacon" Act). #FarmBill

Looking at U.S. Senators trying to sell-out America's family farmers to CHINA in the Farm Bill:

ICYMI: "When conservatives and liberals, animal advocates, federalists and faith leaders all find themselves on the same side of an issue, it is usually worth paying attention." @John_Cleveland @MartyIrby https://t.co/9dVUUiklAI h/t @WilberforceInst #FarmBill #NoSOB

[CMAonX @CMAonX]

ALABAMA AG ALERT: The federal Farm bill could forever cripple the right of states to regulate within their own borders. #StatesRights

U.S. Senators @SenTuberville and @SenKatieBritt have a chance to stand for limited government in fighting to block this! https://t.co/pWJrM1PByd

NEW: "The legal fight has failed. The market has adapted. And the coalition supporting federal preemption is shrinking while coalition opposing continues to grow." @John_Cleveland @MartyIrby

@RogerMarshallMD recognized reality. The rest of the pork industry should do the same!

[CMAonX @CMAonX]

There's no crying in federalism! Protect the Constitution. Call your U.S. Senators and tell them to keep the so-called "Save Our Bacon" ('S.O.B.') Act out of the Farm Bill: [phone] #FarmBill #NoSOB

[CMAonX @CMAonX]

States shouldn't have to answer to members of Congress who are bought and paid for by CHINA.

The so-called "Save Our Bacon" Act sells out America's family farmers to the foreign-owned pork cartel.

U.S. Senators should keep the S.O.B. out and VOTE NO on any amendment. #FarmBill

[Matthew Dominguez @Matt_Dominguez]

Hot off the press:
https://t.co/Ez1FHmTLRw

Let’s spread the word about the @NPPC and their selling out of America’s family farmers.

Say no to Big Pork’s #SaveOurBaconScam

[CMAonX @CMAonX]

Opposition to the "Save Our Bacon" Act has become remarkably broad. In today’s polarized political climate, Americans rarely agree on much of anything. Yet voices from across the ideological spectrum have lined up against efforts to override state animal welfare laws! #FarmBill

[Competitive Markets @OCM_tweets]

Americans do NOT want Congress overturning democratically approved state laws.

VOTERS have spoken. The COURTS have spoken. And perhaps most important, the MARKETPLACE has spoken. #NoSOB

Farmers in west Kansas are proud of Sen. @RogerMarshallMD for heeding our message! #FarmBill
