We, the undersigned U.S. pork producers, petition the Secretary of Agriculture to conduct a referendum to terminate (end) the mandatory Pork Promotion, Research, and Consumer Information Order and the mandatory pork check-off program that it covers. We support a voluntary check-off program.

By my signature, I certify that after January 1, 1997, I have sold one or more swine and have been assessed check-off payments. (Only one person may sign per business entity that owns and sells swine.)
