Missouri Farm Bureau President issued the following statement on the Human Society of the United States financial contribution in opposition of the Mo. Farm Rights Amendment.

“The Humane Society of the United States’ contribution on Thursday of $375,000 to Missouri’s Food for America reveals the true force and motives behind the opposition to Amendment #1, the Missouri Farming Rights Amendment. The opposition to Amendment #1 is being financed by a major out-of-state extremist organization, in contrast to Missouri Farm Bureau’s Fund to Support Amendment #1, which has raised $125,822 and is being financed by literally thousands of family farmers and ranchers across the state.”
