Soybean Farmer's Group Endorses Brunner For U.S. Senate

(Jefferson City, MO) -- The Missouri Soybean Association announced their support for John Brunner in the threeway Republican U.S. Senate primary to take on Sen. Claire McCaskill later this year.

The group's political action committee voted unanimously to support Brunner, said Dale Ludwig, executive director of the Missouri Soybean Association, in a statement Tuesday.

"John Brunner knows first-hand how burdensome regulations can destroy family farms and small businesses, and he will lead the charge to fight for real regulatory reform that will protect our industry for future generations," he said.

Brunner, who was endorsed by the John Deere PAC earlier this month, said he was proud to receive the endorsement, and pledged to oppose "needless EPA regulations."
