Blueprint for Grassroots Action
Farm Bureau has long been an organization that capitalized on
the power of working together. It is through the collaborative
efforts that we achieve our individual and organizational goals. To
this end each county Farm Bureau has a standing Public Policy committee that has at its core the functions listed below:
-
Local Policy
Advancement Program
To accomplish the objects outlined in organization policy
county Farm Bureau members must work together to develop a
coherent strategy.
-
Legislative Action
Program
To be effective, members must work with state and
national lobbying staff to communicate with their legislators
to familiarize them with Farm Bureaus' position on any given
piece of legislation.
-
Political Action
Program
To achieve the policy goals of the Farm Bureau, members
must establish relationships with their elective officials at
all levels. The best way to develop these relationships is to
help the officials get elected.
