THANK YOU! @SenSherrodBrown for introducing the COVER Act to reward farmers for building #soilhealth and #water quality. Let's get it done in the #FarmBill!

[National Wildlife Federation Action Fund @wildlifeaction]

This week @NWF Affiliates from 19 states met with over 60 Senators' and Representatives' offices to #ProtectAgConservation in the next #FarmBill to build #soilhealth, protect #wildlife, be resilient to #climatechange, and revitalize #rural communities!

[National Wildlife Federation Outdoors @NWFoutdoors]

Polling found that 74% of farmers support increasing voluntary @USDA #conservation program funding; 16% oppose increasing funding. @NWF @OurPublicLands @nwf_ag https://t.co/cPpmXz65Kg

"I’m a hunter & angler who enjoys spending time on @OurPublicLands. That’s why I’m so eager to see Congress pass legislation to make sure companies pay to clean up the federal lands that they use for oil & gas development..." @DispatchAlerts #hunt #fish

Every year, Congress supports the #restoration of the nation’s great waters, including the Great Lakes, Chesapeake Bay & the Gulf Coast. The #OhioRiver basin currently does not receive funding.
