“Hello! My name is [insert name]. I am a [give a personal detail, like farmer/teacher/community organizer/etc] who lives in [insert location].
I am calling to urge you to oppose the inclusion of S.2019/H.R.4417, the Ending Agricultural Trade Suppression (EATS) Act or any version of the Act, in the Farm Bill. If passed, the EATS Act would block voters and local or state governments from establishing safeguards around the production or manufacture of agricultural products. This dangerous bill would erode state and local sovereignty to protect the communities within their borders.
By eliminating these opportunities, the act will accelerate market concentration in the food and agriculture industries, giving multinational corporations the win over American farmers and ranchers.
I thank you for all your hard work and for considering this important request.
Have a great day!”
