The trade association representing packers and processors is speaking out against President Biden’s new executive order. North American Meat Institute President and CEO Julie Anna Potts says government intervention in the market will increase the cost of food for consumers at a time when many are still suffering from the consequences of the pandemic. In a statement, Potts says the proposed changes from the Biden administration will open the floodgates for litigation that will ultimately limit livestock producers’ ability to market livestock as they choose.
