We are 96% Campaign Launches Phase Two

The statewide “We are the 96%” campaign launched phase two this past week, with TV ads, radio ads, and digital ads hitting screens all over Illinois. The paid portion of the campaign runs April 1 – June 30 and features “The Corporation” commercial with the Bell family as well as “Career Path” featuring the DeSutter Family, Bunting Family, Leman Family, Boucher Family, and Marr Family along with several others.

The We are the 96% campaign is a coordinated effort of the Illinois Farm Families coalition, consisting of Illinois Beef Association, IL Corn, Illinois Farm Bureau, Illinois Pork Producers Association, Illinois Soybean Association, and Midwest Dairy. Together, we seek to help non-farmers in our state build relationships with the Illinois farm families growing food and fuel for our world.
