AAM farmers meet,

PUEBLO, Colo. Several
thousand fanners with the
American Agriculture
Movement met last weekend
in Pueblo, Colorado for their
second annual “Grass Roots’
Convention.
The AAM drove tractors to
Washington, DC during the
winter of 1979, and
crystallized widespread
discontent in the U.S. farm
community. Over the
weekend, the farmers
celebrated the defeat of
Jimmy Carter, a project the
organization started in 1978
with their “Dump Carter”
Movement.

their goal of 100 percent
parity pr ces in the
marketplace.
It was resolved to continue
the fight for 90 percent
parity loan rates which, if
implemented correctly,
would cost neither the tax
payer nor the government
any fiscal expense. Instead,
it would be the biggest
money-making project for
the federal government in
recent tunes, AAM said.
With 100 percent parity
prices for all agricultural
products, taxes would agam
be paid, people would go
back to work, and the far-

said.
The AAM members
agreed that if the gram
embargo is not lifted as
promised by the incoming
administration, then the
American people should be
told: “The embargo is due to
a shortage situation in the
country, and the 90 percent
parity loan rates should be
implemented immediately
as per section 1002
Agriculture Protection Act
of 1977.” This section would
protect the American con
sumers from food shortages
and skyrocketing prices,
AAM said.
