[Communications] {AUA} Virtual Farm Bill Power Hour!

[Stef Funk]

Hi AUA Listserv,

This *Thursday, October 19th from 5-6pm* CFPAC will be hosting a
*Farm Bill Power Hour* on Zoom! We will be making phone calls to our
members of Congress to ask for a Farm Bill that is sustainable, equitable,
and supports local farmers and eaters. Specifically, we will be asking our
MoC's to cosponsor and support the inclusion of the following marker bills
(read more about these bills here

):

   - Strengthening Local Processing Act (H.R.945 / S.354)
   - Local Farms and Food Act (H.R.2723 / S.1205)
   - Farmers’ Market and Food Bank Local Revitalization Act (H.R. 2378 /
   S.2659)
