Demand Kentucky Farm Bureau Repeal Anti-Gay Policies

Demand Kentucky Farm Bureau Repeal Anti-Gay Policies

The Issue

The Kentucky Farm Bureau is one of Kentucky's largest property and casualty insurance providers in the state. Their mission is to help Kentucky farmers achieve a healthy livelihood, and create a climate where agriculture can succeed.

So why is the Kentucky Farm Bureau adopting policies that are homophobic and demonizing toward the LGBT community?

According to the Kentucky Fairness Campaign, the Kentucky Farm Bureau has adopted formal positions against gay marriage, against domestic partnership benefits, and against recognizing LGBT parents in schools. What do these positions have to do with promoting agriculture?

They don't, and as a large institution in Kentucky, the Kentucky Farm Bureau shouldn't have these policies on their books. Send the Kentucky Farm Bureau a note, joining in the call to get them to discard these discriminatory and unjust positions.
