(Manchester, NH)(August 19, 2018) — Republican congressional candidate Andy Martin was invited to join the New Hampshire Farm Bureau Federation and he accepted. Martin becomes the first congressional candidate in either party to be committed to New Hampshire’s farmers.
“The Farm Bureau had an event for candidates a few days ago,” Martin says. “And I was invited to join. I joined.
“I grew up down the street from a neighborhood dairy. Summers always involved hanging around the bottling plant for fresh strawberry milk. “My uncle Lucian Marcoux owed a home which backed up to the pasture. One lot over from my home there were horses.
“But even then farmers were struggling financially.
“Later, I spent time in the Midwest and became acquainted with mass production agriculture. I have been exposed to farming from the neighborhood family farm to the 640-acre mega-farm (today farms are much larger).
“New Hampshire agriculture is important to our state’s quality of life. But farmers are threatened. Dairy farmers are caught up in the politics of tariffs between Canada and the U.S., as well as facing relentless cost pressures and significant regulation. Local governments are always seeking to extend their control over agricultural land. And on and on. Federal bureaucrats have an insatiable appetite for extending their demands down into every barn and pond.
“I am proud to say I will be New Hampshire’s voice on agriculture in Washington. Farmers will have a friend. Farmers will be able to pick up the phone, like everyone else in my district, and speak to me directly. No aides, no intermediaries, no levels of congressional office bureaucracy. Time will be set aside for direct contact.
“We’ll use technology to enhance access for everyone, not just lobbyists and special interests. Today congressmen are too far removed from their constituents. The former representative who said recently you had to ‘pay to play’ disgusted me.
“In the midst of all of the ‘national’ issues and our foreign challenges and conflicts we confront during a campaign, it is also important to stay grounded here at home in the Granite State. The Farm Bureau will help me do that.
“I am very proud of my new affiliation and I will do my best to see New Hampshire’s farmers get fair treatment in Washington and here at home,” Martin concluded.
