The ACA is focused on leading the beef cattle industry in Arkansas forward through work in legislation, education, advocacy and development. #ARBeef
.@ArkCattlemen are in DC! I sat down with them to discuss the Biden Administration’s misguided WOTUS rule and other issues that directly impact Arkansas livestock producers.🐮
.@ArkCattlemen always do such a great job advocating on behalf of Natural State livestock producers. Today we discussed the negative effect of the Biden WOTUS rule and black vulture predation, and I reaffirmed my commitment to help them and their industry succeed. #ARinDC
Another great week at the Capitol! Spoke to @EndAlzAR to raise awareness about Alzheimers. Welcomed @ArkCattlemen, high school pages, circuit clerks & judges to the senate & Lt. Gov’s office. And, bonus; Julianna got to see @ArkRazorbacks Big Red and Big Sam!
On #NationalLawEnforcementAppreciationDay we are thankful for our Arkansas Department of Agriculture law enforcement officers and all they do to protect Arkansas citizens and agriculture!
I'm excited to be reappointing @Wesley__Ward as the Secretary of @ARDeptofAgricul. He has done an excellent job growing our largest industry while serving our nation in uniform. Agriculture is the backbone of our economy - and together we will work to remain a global leader.
🔥#Pasture conditions in the U.S. are 50% poor or very poor, 2nd worst for this week going back a long time. #cattle #drought @SenateAgGOP
Always good to visit with @ArkCattlemen and discuss the issues they’re facing. I listened to their concerns about the rising costs of fertilizer, gas & diesel, which we’ve got to get that under control so they can succeed, and talked about taking advantage of existing support.
Had a great first day of my 2021 annual Agriculture Tour! Today, I traveled around the Fourth District to meet with @ArFB, @usaricenews, and @ArkCattlemen and tour Pilgrim’s Pride Processing facility in De Queen and JACO Meats in Hope.
The Flying C Ranch in Conway gets extra style points for the way they lead a tour. This large cow-calf operation was our final stop where the president’s plans to increase taxes on family farmers and ranchers drove the discussion. #ARisAg
Ranking Member @JohnBoozman spent some time this afternoon with @ArkCattlemen Executive VP Cody Burkham visiting about the issues Arkansas ranchers are facing.
