❌ HB65
Enact the Agriculture Appreciation Act
Current Status: Effective
Summary
The bill designates specific days and weeks in Ohio to promote agriculture-related awareness and appreciation, including 'Farmer's Day,' 'FFA Week,' '4-H Week,' 'Agriculture Day,' and 'Ohio Soil Health Week.' These designations aim to celebrate and raise awareness of agricultural contributions and soil health.
Rationale
The bill promotes government recognition of specific agricultural events, which may conflict with Libertarian principles of minimal government intervention and free markets. It does not align with the Libertarian Party's emphasis on individual rights and limited government.
Risks and Concerns
- Increases government involvement in agriculture
- Potential for cronyism in agricultural promotions
- May divert resources from more pressing issues
