Today, 140 characters can create a large impact. DBA's public relations team put together tweets to help you vocalize concerns to Congress about unfair trade that threatens to block exports of our dairy products. Changes in Canada are the latest example.
We also want to be sure to thank those lawmakers who are standing up for us.
(See tweet in the list below.)
We urge you to send these out once a day to ensure our message is received.
You can also retweet our messages @DBAWisconsin.
