NCBA Urges Support for Cattle Industry Priorities in Reconciliation Bills

The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) urged the House Agriculture Committee and the House Ways and Means Committee to support key cattle industry priorities that help keep family farms and ranches in business.

Support for the House Agriculture Committee Reconciliation Bill

“Chairman GT Thompson’s House ag reconciliation bill contains key wins for America’s cattle farmers and ranchers. From boosting disaster recovery programs to strengthening foreign animal disease detection and prevention, this bill protects America’s livestock producers,” said NCBA Executive Director of Government Affairs Tanner Beymer. “Cattle producers continue to face emerging animal health threats but have not received the financial resources necessary to mitigate these threats in previous emergency legislative packages. The need for these investments is crucial. NCBA urges all House Agriculture Committee members to swiftly pass this bill.”
