WL FEATURE Playing with a full deck As a helpful tool to our farmers, landlords and industry representatives, we use the January issue of <strong>Wheat</strong> <strong>Life</strong> as a playbook of sorts on our state and national delegates. As you review Washington’s key policymakers, don’t hesitate to contact WAWG or the delegates directly with your comments, concerns and ideas about state and national policy. Your voice is heard, and it can make an impact on each decision being made in both capitols. We urge you to connect with us and them! 20 WHEAT LIFE JANUARY 2012
