The Illinois Independent Consumers and Farmers Association -

This group is dedicated to

- promoting and preserving unregulated, direct farmer-to-consumer trade that fosters the availability of locally grown and/or home produced food products in Illinois,

- oppose any government funded or managed NAIS (National Animal Identification System) program at the state as well as federal levels, and

- address the needs of both consumers and farmers in the state of Illinois in furthering this agenda.

We are not a legal organization, but an advocacy group based on member involvement in the political and economic process.

IICFA is currently a legal business entity within the State of Illinois. We are awaiting notification of our 501 status.

HB5776 Prohibits Illinois from making the NAIS program mandatory.

Meetings in Bloomington and Springfield were very successful.

Please call your Representative, and Speaker Madigan's office, and urge the House to concur with the current version of HB5776.

Speaker Madigan's office: (217) 728 - 5350

You can find your rep through the "il.gov" website

A concurrence vote will send this bill directly to the Governor. Non-concurrence will bounce it back to the Senate.

THANKS!
