Competitive Markets Action and the Organization for Competitive Markets are issuing a call for the public and lawmakers to oppose the “Food Security and Farm Protection Act.” The groups held their sixth farm bill summit and Washington fly-in since 2023 focused on defeating the legislation formerly known as the EATS Act. Marty Irby, president of Competitive Markets Action, says as Congress focuses on reconciliation, it’s important not to lose sight of the urgent threat to farmers and state sovereignty now waiting for action in the Senate Ag Committee. “This assault on American family farmers would overturn and nullify countless agriculture laws enacted by voters and legislatures in all states,” Irby said. Taylor Haynes, president of the Organization for Competitive Markets, said Senate Bill 1326 is a “naked effort” by America’s largest agricultural producers to do an end-run around the U.S. Supreme Court and give foreign adversaries a bigger choke hold on U.S. agriculture.
