.@realDonaldTrump @WhiteHouse Cattlemen and women cannot stand behind President Trump while he undercuts the future of family farmers and ranchers by importing Argentinian beef. It is imperative that @POTUS and @SecRollins let cattle markets work without interference. If the administration is truly an ally of America’s cattle producers, we call on him to abandon this effort to manipulate markets and focus instead on completing the promised New World Screwworm facility in Texas; make additional investments that protect the domestic cattle herd from foreign animal diseases such as FMD; and address regulatory burdens, such as delisting of the gray wolf and addressing the scourge of black vultures.

New World screwworm is now 70 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. That is far too close. @USDA has taken some important steps to protect the cattle industry, but it's time to move faster. NCBA is asking for: 🏗️ @USDA to expedite construction of the domestic sterile fly facility 💉 @FDA to build on their emergency use authorization and approve more treatment options for screwworm 🪰 @EPA to approve pesticides to combat screwworm Cattle producers should stay vigilant and report any suspicious wounds, larvae, or flies to their state animal health officials.

🚨 Hours ago, Mexico confirmed a new case of New World screwworm in Sabinas Hidalgo, located in the state of Nuevo León, less than 70 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. This is now the northernmost detection of NWS during this outbreak, and the one most threatening to the American cattle and livestock industry. Currently, U.S. ports remain closed to imports of cattle, bison, and horses from Mexico. Details: usda.gov/about-usda/new…

WCA is proud to join all the other ag groups that signed this letter. A huge thank you to Representative Tom Dent for standing up for Washington’s agricultural community and fighting for a permanent CCA fuel exemption for farmers and ranchers!
