@seedcattleguy Checkoffs need oversight. Let’s vote in the #offact so they can not continue to use our tax dollars on each sale of a live animal to lobby against us being in business. I don’t care if they have sweetheart deals with the packers.

@itsmetoo92774 @eichstadt_jay @USDA @BeefUSA We’ve been arguing for the #offact for accountability and transparency cause the USDA won’t enforce illegal direct and indirect use of checkoff funds for lobbying and policy. It’s a d@mn shame our money is used to consolidate this industry! @SecVilsack

It’s time to reform @USDA's corrupt checkoff programs and demand hardworking farmers + ranchers get a #FairShake! The #OFFAct would provide much-needed transparency, says Will Harris of @whiteoakpasture.💪 https://t.co/e43SlU7oE9

🧵 1. Federal law effectively gives agricultural special-interest groups called “check-off programs” the power to tax. Not surprisingly, this cozy arrangement has given rise to allegations of serious abuse and corruption.

DYK farmers are forced to pay $900M annually in #checkoff fees? Checkoff $ should fund product research & promotion. Instead, this money is funneled to lobbyists due to lax program oversight. The #OFFAct will ban lobbyists from receiving checkoff funds. https://t.co/zfYeJqOMnD

😳 Nutsack has stayed committed to keeping the fraud hidden in checkoff moneys. No accountability in government. These programs all need to be exposed for their corruption! #OFFAct

Tick, tock. USDA has failed to account for 3 years of spending by the largest #checkoff program, which collects mandatory fees from struggling dairy farmers. We joined @DairyNational in calling for the release of these federally mandated spending reports.https://t.co/Zbo0RZRFdn

@stoicdawn @Liz85139 @TulsiGabbard Unlike the GND the #OFFAct was not a giveaway to corporations, it removed the fossil fuel subsidies to create an even playing field for the eventual transition #OffFossilFuels Contract tracing made sense in the beginning of the pandemic in Hawaii. https://t.co/IZC3LsOqlf

@truthseeker6761 @RoystonPotter @LionandLeopards @TulsiGabbard CFR offers: life membership for FP professionals, and 5 yr term membership for young, rising leaders in international affairs. Tulsi had 5 year term membership in the CFR, speaking for nonintervention. She no longer belongs. https://t.co/I41f3lCNWo

@jackiemccaffrey @johnbeal77 @SocialistMMA @AOC As an activist for the #OffFossilFuels act, which was called "the best bill ever" by Barbara Lee, I campaigned for AOC after she signed a pledge to endorse the #OffAct, and then failed to come through on this simple campaign promise https://t.co/ZxrxDTNUh3

@AlexKnight_1991 Joe Crowley supported the #OFFAct, actually reducing emissions and ending fossil fuel subsidies. AOC seems to support the WEF's plan of Net-zero, allowing emissions to continue...but with carbon offsets. Joe Crowley >> AOC #PES #WEF
