 is fighting for agriculture in Albany!


Assemblyman Marc Butler knows that life on the farm is difficult and that making a living isn’t easy

Dear Neighbor,

As a member of the Assembly Agriculture Committee, I know that New York’s agriculture industry is one of our state’s greatest assets but it is also in need of aid from the state government. Farmers are feeling the economic squeeze with the price of fuel skyrocketing, increasing feed costs, low milk prices and property taxes being at an all time high.

I am committed to New Yorkers and am going to work hard to fight for tax relief and other aid for this vital industry.
