Take a stand against overreaching EPA regulations! Support H.R.7079, the BEEF Act, and H.R.7023, the Creating Confidence in Clean Water Permitting Act, as vital solutions to ensure sustainable practices in our food and water systems. H.R.7079 protects small farms from burdensome regulations by promoting sustainable agriculture, while H.R.7023 aims to streamline water permitting processes, making it more balanced and practical. Use our templates to contact your representative on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. Voice your support to counteract extreme EPA regulations that threaten our agricultural and environmental health. Act now—your advocacy is crucial!
