GOP Lawmakers Pressure White House to Reevaluate Argentine Decision

The Trump Administration is getting pushback from lawmakers over the proposal to increase Argentine beef imports to offset consumer beef prices. Senate Majority Leader John Thune said this isn’t the right approach and he hopes the White House has gotten that message. A group of farm state House Republicans are delivering that same message. South Dakota Congressman Dusty Johnson said these efforts will only undermine the farmers and ranchers who put dinner on the table. North Dakota Representative Julie Fedorchak reaffirmed her support for an America First philosophy, saying American ranchers can meet the demands of the market.
