Al Weed has received the endorsement of the National Farmers
Union. President Tom Buis writes in a letter
announcing the endorsement that the NFU, “seeks to
support candidates for federal office who are
committed to ensuring that the public policy needs of
family farmers, ranchers, and the communities in
which they live are addressed. You have
demonstrated that commitment, and we thank
you.” Weed responded to the endorsement saying, “I am honored to receive the endorsement of the National Farmers Union. I have owned and operated a family farm for over 30 years and know the important issues faced by the thousands of family farmers in central and Southside Virginia. It is this personal knowledge and experience I will take to Washington.” The National Farmers Union agrees with Al on many issues. Three of the most important are expanding opportunities for renewable energy, especially ethanol and biodiesel; improving rural health care, education, and transportation; and expanding trade policies that are fair to America’s farmers. “With the support of the National Farmers Union and farm communities across our district, I will fight in Washington for policies that will protect our family farms and our rural heritage. I look forward to that opportunity,” Weed said. |
