PETITION FOR PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

With this citizen petition to the Presidential Debates Commission, we submit the following question:

Favoring family farm agriculture and quality food, we propose this question for presidential debates: "Should U.S. farm policy continue its 40-year-old export oriented pricing, or should farm prices be put in balance (parity) with prices of other goods and services, as was done in the New Deal?"
