Wisconsin Farmer Endorse Governor Walker, all Senate Incumbents!

So let's see, manufacturers are for Walker. Small business owners are for Walker. Taxpayers are for Walker. And the farmers are for Walker. Who the hell is left? Oh yeah, unionistas and anarchists. This thing should be about 87%-13%, but I'll take 55-45%. But nothing less. Momentum. Foot squarely on collective leftist jugulars. Even the Falk idiots on Twitter are about done; they're so beaten down, they don't know if it's a war on women, not enough jobs, something about a handful of teachers getting pink slipped; its certainly nothing about collective bargaining, that's for sure. My guess for tomorrow's battle; global warming. Or is that climate change, I always forget... ----------------------------------------- VFA Endorse Governor Walker, Three Senators in Recall Election April 5, 2012 The Volunteers for Agriculture Committee has endorsed the five incumbents in a historic recall election scheduled for June 5. “Governor Scott Walker and his administration have been strong advocates for agriculture since taking office in January 2011,” said Cal Dalton, a Columbia County corn, soybean and beef farmer who chairs the Farm Bureau’s political action arm, the Volunteers for Agriculture (VFA). “Governor Walker has consistently expressed his support for use value assessment of farmland, state standards for the siting of livestock farms, and our state’s right to farm law,” Dalton said. “In addition, he has been an advocate for increasing agricultural exports and recently unveiled an initiative to increase Wisconsin’s milk production to 30 billion pounds by the year 2020.” Dalton said Gov. Walker and Lieutenant Governor Rebecca Kleefisch’s VFA endorsement comes from signing a number of Farm Bureau-supported bills into law. They include: * A state income tax deduction for contributions to health savings accounts * Needed reforms to wetland regulations * A two-year state budget that did not raise fees or increase taxes * Extension of the dairy and livestock investment tax credit * Extension of the fall harvest road weight exemption from November 30 to December 31 * A variety of transportation bills that make it more feasible to haul ag products, manure and sealed containers for international trade * Continued an exemption pertaining to livestock farms and air quality permits, which kept Wisconsin from being a regulatory island The VFA also endorsed three state senators facing recall elections for their strong support of these agricultural issues over the past legislative session. The VFA Senate endorsements include: * Sen. Scott Fitzgerald (R-Juneau) 13th Senate District * Sen. Van Wanggaard (R-Racine) 21st Senate District * Sen. Terry Moulton (R-Chippewa Falls) 22nd Senate District Dalton also noted that Governor Walker named Wisconsin Farm Bureau President Bill Bruins to the state Natural Resources Board, and Farm Bureau members Pam Garvey and Miranda Leis to the state Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection Board. Former Farm Bureau employee Jeff Lyon was selected by Ben Brancel, Secretary of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection as his deputy secretary. The Volunteers for Agriculture Committee is comprised of 18 farmers from across the state. The Volunteers for Agriculture was formed to give farmers a more direct role in electing leaders who best represent agriculture’s interests.
