For those who wonder why farmers weep
‘Cause kids and chicks their tags don’t keep
It’s not just the pain and cost so deep,
It’s that “Government Help,” we saw in “Mad Sheep.”
Mad Sheep, written by Linda Faillace, explains her farm family’s experience with the
USDA and its early stages of the National Animal Identification System.
Published by Chelsea Green, read it and see why farmers are fighting so hard
to protect their land, their rights, their livelihoods and their animals. Read, Pass it on, and ask the President to read it. In order to protect our small farms and safest food, we all need to stop NAIS before all our food is raised by Industrial Agriculture. If you value your choice of sustainably raised local meat, dairy and eggs, voice your opposition to NAIS by contacting your elected officials, the USDA and your friends.
Please circulate this through the Internet. For those who don't understand why we're so afraid of NAIS, this book can illustrate it better than any other I know of.
Thanks,
