Union leader says Dems support farmers

To the editor:

Darin Von Ruden, president of the Wisconsin Farmers Union, has talked about the broken promises President Donald Trump made to farmers in Wisconsin and the destruction he has imposed on the agricultural industry.

Von Ruden makes it clear that the GOP and this administration have been disastrous for family farms for the last three years. These same families are struggling to educate their children from home as coronavirus threatens the education system at large, and who are facing an economy that demands more and more digitally focused work.

Von Ruden added, “We are proud to have leaders in Wisconsin like Gov. Tony Evers who are championing a future for Wisconsin that leaves no one behind.”

Vice President Mike Pence came to Wisconsin. His purpose was a pure, easily recognized, political campaign junket. The western side of the state (Pence in La Crosse) is way too smart to get fooled by such antics.

Polls are looking blue for presidential candidate Joe Biden. Eastern Wisconsin farmers and Wisconsinites have their “forward lights” back on for getting back to a “progressive Wisconsin.”
