Hillary Clinton's Plan for Rural America

Today, Hillary Clinton highlighted her agenda to support rural America. Hillary understands the importance of rural communities to America's economy and way of life. She understands that rural America face challenges in economic development, agriculture, education and health. But she also knows that with the right policies in place, rural communities can thrive and can help America solve pressing national problems, like providing a safe and health food supply, producing renewable energy to move us toward energy independence, creating vibrant rural communities and jobs, and helping to tackle global warming.

Hillary has said many times that most of the problems faced by our nation can be solved in our rural communities. As a Senator, Hillary has worked hand-in-hand with farmers, small businesses, and local leaders to promote a better life in rural areas. She was proud to receive the 2007 Golden Triangle Award from the National Farmers Union as recognition of her work on behalf of family farmers and rural communities. Hillary has a vision for rural America rooted in experience, and she is ready to lead us there.

SUPPORTING FAMILY FARMS

In the Senate, Hillary has made a strong commitment to supporting family farms. She has consistently promoted legislation and initiatives that will help small farmers remain competitive in the face of a growing threat by corporate agriculture and vertical integration that/to dominate agricultural markets. She has also promoted efforts to help farmers get healthy, fresh food directly into the hands of consumers.
