There is a need for greater access to rural content.
Currently, there are two resolutions introduced in Washington, D.C., House Resolution 451 and Senate Resolution 113.
The goal is to provide rural Americans with access to content relevant to their daily lives, including the programming RFD-TV provides. It is also an effort to connect city with country.
RFD-TV founder and president, Patrick Gottsch is asking for you to please contact your two U.S. Senators, asking them to support attaching Senate Resolution 113 to the Farm Bill, then, contact your Congress person to ask him or her to support attaching House Resolution 451 to their version of the Farm Bill.
Contact your state’s senators today and ask them to co-sponsor SR 113.
Contact your congressional representative today and ask them to co-sponsor HR 451.
Economists are also closely watching how policy decisions in Washington could influence markets moving forward. Analysts say deferred futures for corn, soybeans, and wheat suggest markets are operating near break-even levels, not at prices that would encourage expanded production.
