Administration Urged to Support America's Ranchers

U.S. Rep.Adrian Smith, R-Neb., responded to the Trump Adminis - tration's move to increase foreign beef imports.

“As Nebraska’s ranchers con- tinue to recover from the historic wildfires this spring-amid an on - going drought-they need market certainty. With cattle inventory at 75-year lows, we must focus on policies which empower ranchers to rebuild our domestic herd. “While I acknowledge the administration’s efforts to address consumers' concerns, providing certainty for America’s hardwork- ing ranchers is essential. Moving forward, I will continue to en courage the administration to pursue policies that give America's ranchers the assurance they need to make long-term decisions for their operations."
