MFB Legislative Programs
Missouri Farm Bureau's legislative staff members
represent the interests of Missouri Farm Bureau members everyday on national and
state policy issues. MFB policy positions are determined by members. The Resolutions
Committee meets in June to consider current issues and questions for the Policy
Questionnaire that appears in the July issue of Show Me Missouri Farm Bureau
magazine. County Farm Bureau's review member responses and submit policy recommendations
to the Resolutions Committee. In October the Resolutions Committee reviews county
recommendations and prepares tentative policy resolutions. At the state annual
meeting in December, voting delegates representing county Farm Bureaus offer amendments
from the delegate floor. Delegates vote on all existing and amended policy resolutions.
The Capitol Connection newsletter provides
weekly legislative updates during the state legislative session (January-May)
and periodically through the rest of the year. Members can receive the newsletter
electronically or via regular mail.
