For five generations, my family and I have grown corn, soybeans, and hay while raising cattle and swine. I have been working on my family’s farm in Marshall County since I was a kid. I look forward to teaching my cousins how to make a career out of farming here in Iowa. With the rise of policies like Prop 12, I worry about our farm’s longevity and ability to thrive. California’s policies put a squeeze on family farms like ours. Thankfully, we have champions like Ashley Hinson fighting to pass the Save Our Bacon Act in this year’s Farm Bill. Chuck Schumer’s involvement makes it clear he sees opposing this bill as a political opportunity to flip Iowa’s Senate seat. This tells you all you need to know about Josh Turek and his boss’s intentions. They have no problem using Iowa farmers as political pawns in their campaign for power. Iowans see right through these phony tactics. Ashley Hinson is fighting for the right, commonsense policy that Iowa’s farmers need and deserve.
