A coalition of more than 150 agriculture and trade groups led by the National Pork Producers Council is asking Congress to appropriate funds to address what could be a $630 million COVID-19 related shortfall through fiscal year 2021.
Andrew Bailey, the science and technology legal counsel with the National Pork Producers Council, says the coalition sent a letter to Congress on Monday asking for funding to ensure that agricultural inspections at US borders remain strong next year.
