Related: About this forum"USMCA" by the Farming People
The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) will benefit American workers by enabling free and fair trade while supporting a 21st-century economy. Learn more and do YOUR part to support the USMCA: https://mofb.org/trade
-----------------------
Making their international debut, The Farming People released their soon-to-be-#1 hit single, "USMCA."
Members of the talented musical and agricultural group are known political activists supporting free trade. This catchy tune is sure to take their "agvocacy" to another level.
The Farming People organized in 2019 and were soon plowing through the underground rural music scene. The alter egos of The Farmer, Boots, The Milkman, Bucket Lady, and Macho Man have yet to be discovered, but their adoring fans will undoubtedly dig into their identities and swarm to their farms in the days to come.
The newfound fame has not gone to their heads... yet. With "USMCA" rocketing up the charts, Speaker Pelosi will have a hard time keeping the naysayers at bay.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, The Farmer said, "The United States-Mexico-Canada-Agreement is critical to farmers like us. Anything we can do to help it get across the finish line - we're there. My fellow artists in The Farming People are just following the long tradition of musicians engaging in political activism. We really think it can make a difference."
Other members shared The Farmer's starry-eyed idealism. Macho Man told TMZ, "Sometimes it feels like there's nothing but bad news in the farm economy. When Speaker Pelosi brings USMCA up for a vote, it'll make a big splash in farm country."
Boots shared a new generation's perspective with The Skimm, saying, "Young farmer-musicians like me want something to be excited about. I think "USMCA" can be just the thing to make the difference!"
