R-CALF USA continues to push for reforms in the nation’s cattle and beef markets.
The group sent a letter to Congress refuting information from the North American Meat Institute claiming livestock suppliers ‘benefit from a fair and competitive’ market.
CEO Bill Bullard tells Brownfield a document from NAMI distributed in Congress is an attempt to derail efforts to address the food crisis. “And it’s had a chilling effect on our ability to get members of Congress to join onto the Senator Rounds and Senator Smith letter that’s calling for immediate and decisive action.”
Last week, Senators Mike Rounds, Repbulican from South Dakota and Democrat Tina Smith of Minnesota sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland for a review of anti-trust laws in the beef processing industry.
