President Trump is facing backlash from Republicans and Democrats alike for his decision to import foreign beef. While voicing his opposition, South Dakota Senator John Thune noted that he represents a beef-producing state with four times as many cattle as people. North Dakota Representative Julie Fedorchak said everybody wants lower grocery prices, but it shouldn’t be done “on the backs of North Dakota ranchers and producers.” Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley used X to say U.S. cattlemen should come first with America First policies.
