Relief coming to Illinois farmers....

[murielm99]

Thank you JB!

Illinois farm advocates have scored a $2.2 billion commitment from one of the state's biggest trade partners.

... Governor J.B. Pritzker's office announced that Taiwan has signed agreements with the Illinois Corn Markets Assn. and the Illinois soybean Assn. Each received a $1.1 billion agreement to purchase the respective crops in 2020 and 2021.

Trump is killing farmers here, but our Democratic governor, one of the most progressive in the nation, is saving us.

5. This is a major nail

in the Rethug coffin for Illinois . Going to say,watch for this Grain Sale to be one hell of a Political Football for the Dems before years end.

Central and Southern Illinois Corn Growers as well as Soybean Growers are at this time having harvest issues. Something that is happening in real time is they can not Harvest their crops due to wet muddy fields and the crops are starting to Germinate on the stalk as well as in the bean pods making those crops useless.

Watch for other Democratic Governor's to move to open Foreign Markets for their States Farmers.

Will be interesting to watch the Commerce Department try to kill Export Licenses.

6. Indeed So. I'll is pretty red. They better figure out who is on their side and who isn't

7. Yes they better.

Pritz is making old time Dem moves in Illinois. Watch for him to hit the National Stage in 2024.

8. We are now in a drought.

Harvesting is going pretty quickly actually.

Still, Republicans down here hammer Democrats on everything. Don't expect them to be thanking J B anytime soon.

9. Sure amazing how three generations ago,

these same families could not find anything great to say about a Republican.

Every single FSA Office or Banker in Rural America would not be viable today with out Democratic Leadership and Policies created some sixty plus years ago.

And with Sonny Purdue running the show,most of those Policies are about to get rescinded.
