Farmers and Ranchers declaring their support for Kennedy
Farmers Declaration
To Our Fellow Americans -
For years, we farmers and ranchers have seen administrations come and go. They only shift slightly in one direction or the other, however, nothing significant ever happens.
Meanwhile, the number of family farms has plummeted, and is still falling.
We are courageously taking a stand because we finally have two candidates who have made Healthy Soil and Farmer Prosperity a top priority. We family farmers stand together to endorse Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Nicole Shanahan for these solid reasons:
Robert can win, in a 3-way race, he only needs 34% of the vote
Healthy soil is a key issue, Robert explains (1 minute) why we need it (5 minutes)
Nicole has been saying soil is crucial ever since she learned about the disastrous loss of topsoil
For Kennedy's farm policies, see Regenerating America's Soil, Farms, and Food Topsoil loss is a significant environmental problem in the United States, with severe consequences for agriculture, food security, and the environment. The Rodale Institute tells us the world has only 60 years of topsoil left if current rates of degradation continue. In the USA, soil erosion is a major problem, with an estimated annual cost of $44 billion.
We urge you to remember the farming community when you fill out your ballot.
On July 4th 2024, this declaration was authored and signed in the United States, by a group of American Farmers & Ranchers.

I strongly support Bobby Kennedy and Nicole Shanahan because I am a mother first and our future generations depend on fast acting, smart, kind hearted people like Bobby and Nicole to lead our Country.

We were drawn to Kennedy as soon as we heard him talking about the importance of soil and agriculture, specifically regenerative agriculture. His focus on the importance of protecting our environment for not only us, but our future generations is something that is being ignored by everyone in our political system.

I think Robert F. Kennedy is the most authentic, capable and intelligent candidate for president that I have seen in my lifetime. It's an honor to champion his trajectory!

My family has farmed and work in Monroe County, Wisconsin, since 1872. This year, we celebrated our 106th family reunion. I own a 160-acre farm. I milked dairy cows here for 20 yrs. I sold them in 2013 and now raise organic corn ,hay n small grain. We are at critical levels of farmers in every category. The left vs. right battle has solved nothing. It's time for some real change. Support the Kennedy ticket this fall. Maybe we can right the ship before it sinks.
