THANK YOU FOR BEING A CHAMPION OF OUR COMMUNITIES AND THE AGRICULTURAL INDUSTRY!

The 2023 MI GreenStone PAC contribution campaign was record setting with almost $40,000 being contributed by more than 480 Michigan GreenStone customers. This is another strong representation of the support members have for the MI GreenStone PAC. Your board of directors and management team are diligently evaluating legislative leaders and will be sharing the importance of rural communities, agriculture, and the Farm Credit System with elected officials.

The WI Farm Credit PAC Contribution Campaign received over $3,800 from Wisconsin GreenStone customers. The WI Farm Credit PAC funds will also be disbursed by your Directors and management team in coordination after an evaluation process.

The AgriBank District 2023 Farm Credit PAC drive competition brought in almost $22,000 in contributions and these funds are used to support federally elected officials. A portion of the Farm Credit PAC funds will be allocated to the GreenStone territory and your Directors and management will assist in the delivery and communication of the Farm Credit message.

As the debate over policies critical to rural communities and agriculture heats up, we are well positioned to carry the messages of Farm Credit and our customers. In fact, the work has already begun with participation in Farm Bill Hearings and Ag Day in Michigan and Wisconsin. Our success will be determined by the strength of the relationships we have with elected officials, and that is why your support of the PACs is so important. Thank you for being a champion of our communities and the agricultural industry! ■

Congratulations to Joshua Quaderer and Charles Neuenfeldt as they lead the Association in the number of customers contributing to the state level PACs.

Actual Campaign Contributions:

• MI: $39,831.91 from 489 contributors

• WI: $3,896.73 from 62 contributors
