After a federal district court dismissed a case filed against the EPA, thereby upholding the validity of the EPA’s public release of personal information about farmers and their families, the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF), along with the National Pork Producers Council (NPPC), filed a brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, calling the release unlawful and asking the Court of Appeals to reverse the district court’s decision.
