Iowa Swampbuster Lawsuit Threatens Wetlands Nationwide (Webinar)
For decades, Swampbuster provisions in the Farm Bill have protected wetlands on agricultural land, representing an important pact between taxpayers and farmers that receive government benefits. An ongoing federal lawsuit threatens to abolish these provisions and put wetlands in jeopardy nationwide. In this webinar, attendees will hear from attorney Katie Garvey of the Environmental Law and Policy Center and Aaron Lehman, President of the Iowa Farmers Union about the status of the case, what is at stake, and opportunities to get involved.
