AFR Cooperative Delegates to Lobby on Behalf of Membership

Fri, 09 Sep 2022 08:13:32 CDT

AFR Cooperative Delegates to Lobby on Behalf of Membership American Farmers & Ranchers (AFR) Cooperative delegates are looking forward to an effective week on Capitol Hill as they participate in the 2022 National Farmers Union (NFU) Fall Legislative Fly-In Sept. 11-14.

AFR Cooperative President Scott Blubaugh will lead the team of delegates as they meet one-on-one with members of Oklahoma’s legislative delegation. The AFR efforts will be mirrored nationwide as Farmers Union members from every state organization meet with members of Congress to highlight challenges our nation’s farmers and ranchers are facing and outline priorities and goals for future legislation.

In addition to congressional meetings, the Oklahoma delegation will also hear from U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) officials about current events, opportunities and other work the Agency is doing on behalf of farmers. They will also receive briefings from the leadership and staff of the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Agriculture and the Biden Administration.

AFR Cooperative is a membership services organization established in 1905 as Oklahoma Farmers Union. AFR provides educational, legislative and cooperative programs across the state and serves as a watchdog for Oklahoma’s family farmers and ranchers and rural communities. The organization is actively supportive of the state’s agricultural industry and rural population with membership consisting of farmers actively involved in production agriculture and non-farmers adding their voice in support of AFR principles.
