@ForwardPartyNC@Fwd_Party Is there a program that will help them move away from a crop that is being phased out due to its negative health impacts? Tobacco is falling out of favor for a reason
What a meaningful Gehrig Day 💙😭
I watched every game & want to thank everyone involved — on air, field, behind scenes + in stands — for honoring Gehrig & advocating for people with ALS
This disease is inextricably linked to baseball & I’m proud MLB continues to step up💙
“I might have been given a bad break. But I’ve got an awful lot to live for.”
87 years after Lou Gehrig became the face of ALS, there is still no cure.
Today on #LouGehrigDay, we continue our mission to raise awareness of ALS, support the need for research and care, remember those who bravely fought, and recognize those who continue to battle.
Update since the thread below. The Senate Ag Committee held a closed-door meeting last week, during which the committee’s chairman, Senator Boozman (R-AR) announced that he'll not include Save Our Bacon in the starting draft of the Senate farm bill.
That’s a real win — thanks to so many, SOB has become so controversial that even the committee chairman wants to avoid it.
But the fight is far from over. Even though SOB won’t be in the opening draft, individual senators on the Agriculture Committee can (and likely will) still try to add it back in through an amendment.
Please call your senators today and tell them: do not pass a Farm Bill that contains the SOB Act. The Capitol Switchboard: (202) 224-3121. Thank you.
