@rep_jackson Thanks for the visit. Great to hear your thoughts on Illinois agriculture. @ILFarmBureau @ILFBPres

Sat down and had a productive talk with President Brian Duncan of the IL Farm Bureau to discuss the farm bill and USDA Hiring Freeze. It's vitally important to me that all my constituents have easy access to SNAP programs and groceries and to avoid any pitfalls that may lead to food deserts.

Over Congress's break, our members hosted legislators on their farms to discuss the need for a #FarmBill. Kudos to our members advocating & to the legislators who took time to listen.@RepLaHood @RepMaryMiller @RepSchneider @RepCasten @RepEricSorensen @RepRobinKelly @janschakowsky

I’m raising money for the kids of @StJude. Will you help me meet my goal? @PeoriaStJude #blono fundraising.stjude.org/site/TR/Walk/W…

@RepNikkiB Thank you for listening to your farmers. You and your staff have been available for conversations throughout the process. 👏

Want to give a huge shoutout to my amazing Agriculture Advisory Council! Thank you all for joining me to talk about our priorities for Central and Southern IL family farmers before this week’s #FarmBill markup.

@RepNikkiB @HouseAgDems Thank you for the opportunity to hear your perspective, for your leadership and for allowing others to share thoughts. #FarmBill @ILFarmBureau

Kicked off the day by meeting with my Agriculture Advisory Council! Thank you to all of the stakeholders who came together in Monticello. I’m excited to partner with family farmers and ag leaders as @HouseAgDems continue pushing for #FarmBill passage this year.

I’m happy to share I’m staring a new position as Director of National Legislation at @ILFarmBureau. In this role I will direct, develop and execute IFB national legislative programs and serve as a liaison w/ the IL congressional delegation, congressional staff & federal agencies.

Today we celebrate 20 plus years of service from ⁦@WorkingTheHill⁩, but ⁦@ILFarmBureau⁩ and his colleagues are sad to see him retire. I owe Adam for my career at IL Farm Bureau and for all the guidance. He was a champion for agriculture. Congrats! ⁦@FarmBureau⁩

Farmers drive the economy in Illinois, and I’ll never back down from being their voice in Washington. This week I was in Quincy with Adams County Farm Bureau members to talk issues and receive the @IFBACTIVATOR endorsement. I’m honored to have their support!

.@ILFarmBureau had a retirement today & Jim Polus is going to be missed. He is one of the nicest, talented and hard-working individuals I had the pleasure to work with. I always counted on his expertise to make the product better. Congrats Jim!! Great send off by @MattWettersten

@jjrayn Yes. Thanks for clarification. My bad.

@Ryan_ILFB You mean traditional. That was original.

Today was the first leg of our @IFBACTIVATOR endorsement tour. We had a chance to meet up with farmers who are members of the Mason County Farm Bureau, Cass-Morgan Farm Bureau, and Menard County Farm Bureau. I'm honored to have the support of so many farmers in central IL.

$4.59 for a gallon of gas in #blono. NOPE! Time to produce domestically again. @SenatorDurbin @SenDuckworth @RodneyDavis @RepLaHood #Oilprices #FuelPrice

@DBloomberg @WGNRadio @caseysgenstore @JTatRFDRadio Exactly. I put it up against a lot of pizza. I love a slice off of the “circle of death.” Seriously……sooooo good!

Hey @WGNRadio just so you know @caseysgenstore pizza is not gas station pizza. It so much more than than that! Am I right @Ryan_ILFB @JTatRFDRadio

One year later and it still hurts, but getting easier. Happy #VeteransDay2021 Dad! Proud that our family still takes the time to recognize grandpa and #veterans. We raised the flag at sunrise and took it down at sunset. #VeteransDay

Monday our family laid our father to rest. He was a proud Vietnam Veteran. Happy #VeteransDay dad! 🇺🇸 We are so proud of your service to our country, community and our family. We miss you already, but are happy you were ours. 🇺🇸

One year ago I lost my father. He gave me everything and taught me so much. I can’t believe a year has passed. It seems like just yesterday, but also an eternity. #FatherAndSon

On this week's episode of #BuildingBN, we visit with our @ILFarmBureau's Economist Mike Doherty and Associate Director of Local Government and Political Engagement @Ryan_ILFB to discuss #Agriculture's Impact on the #BloomingtonNormal #Economy. anchor.fm/buildingbn/epi…
