GOTV weekend in York, #Pennsylvania for @KamalaHarris & @Tim_Walz. Three days to go! 🇺🇸

Watching history on the Ellipse tonight in DC. “The United States is the greatest idea humanity ever devised. In seven days, let us turn the page and start writing the next great chapter in the most extraordinary story ever told.” @KamalaHarris

In Franklin County, #Pennsylvania today talking to #rural voters about supporting @KamalaHarris, @Tim_Walz, and the entire Democratic ticket. Ten days to go! 🇺🇸

America’s farmers and ranchers feed our nation and drive our economy. We’re gonna make sure that rural communities can thrive, too.

Growing up in a small town, you learn to take care of your neighbors. So let me tell you exactly what @KamalaHarris and I will do to support our rural communities. With our Plan for Rural America: We’ll recruit 10,000 more rural health care professionals and increase access to affordable and high-quality health care in rural communities. We’ll make sure independent pharmacies can stay open — and build 3,000 more, so rural communities can get the medications they need. We’ll support the sandwich generation to care for our elders at home and lower the cost of child care. We’ll support family farmers and help ensure future generations of American farmers can thrive by helping beginning farmers get more access to credit, and connecting them with all sorts of training and technical assistance. And we’ll make sure farmland remains farmland and isn’t taken over by big corporate buyers.

The work our farmers, ranchers, and producers do is tough under the very best of conditions. We owe them our full support so they can keep feeding America. When Vice President Harris and I win this election, we’ll always have your back.

The Walz advance team cranked out a certified banger today on a farm in Pennsylvania. Behold:

This morning at the @WhiteHouse, I joined farmers, ranchers, producers, & agricultural leaders from across the country to discuss how @POTUS and @USDA are responding to the impacts of Hurricane Helene and making historic investments in rural communities.

@kathrynleephd Me too! It was the best decision.

@RodSnyderWV So glad we trekked to Plains.

Happy 100th birthday to President Jimmy Carter! A remarkable life of public service and humanitarianism. We are a better country and a better world because of him.

So honored to give the opening keynote at the tenth annual @SustAgSummit on November 20 in Minneapolis. I’ll reflect on the past decade of #farmer-led #climate & #sustainability efforts and provide an outlook on the next chapter of this important work. sustainableagsummit.org
