Farmers Union Board Commends Congressmen In Waco Meeting
The Texas Farmers Union Board commends Congress for raising food cost transparency and supports limiting processor entry into farming. It urges Nixon to keep raw agricultural products exempt from price controls and calls for tax reform and a corporate profits tax. The group also pushes changes to trailer safety laws, opposes fragmentation of the Agriculture Department, and seeks amendments to the Wheat Promotion Bill including two thirds producer membership and biennial referenda.
