Purpose:

The WFB PAC focuses on races for the state Legislature and statewide offices. The criterion for support is a willingness to support Farm Bureau Policy and our priority issues. Political affiliation with a particular party is not required. 

The purpose of the PAC is to expand, promote, and complement the activities of Washington Farm Bureau and its members.

We work across aisles, parties, and affiliations to protect and promote agriculture and rural values. Relationships with legislators are key. Your generous contribution will help us cultivate and maintain those relationships and help advance our work at the Capitol.

To be successful, we need the support and involvement of Washington Farm Bureau members like you who believe lawmakers must preserve Washington’s agricultural heritage by:

• Decrease burdensome regulations, taxes, and fees.
• Mitigate agricultural labor cost increases, including overtime.
• Protect access and promote expansion to an affordable agricultural water supply
• Support voluntary conservation efforts rather than proscriptive buffer regulations.
• Reduce transportation costs from farm to table.

Process:

The WFB PAC endorses candidates for office based on recommendations from our County Farm Bureau Candidate Evaluation Committees. The WFB PAC Board of Trustees meets to consider recommendations from these county committees and votes to endorse candidates who share our philosophy and basic principles, including support for agriculture.
