President Trump Signs Into Law Animal Health, Tax Safeguards for America’s Pork Producers

The National Pork Producers Council (NPPC) today thanked President Trump for signing into law the “One Big, Beautiful Bill.”

NPPC President Duane Stateler, a pork producer from McComb, Ohio, said, “The ‘One Big, Beautiful Bill’ is one of the most consequential pieces of legislation for American agriculture in years. It helps producers protect our herds by fending off foreign animal diseases, and it also cuts red tape, allowing us to more easily pass down our farms to the next generation.”

“NPPC thanks President Trump for signing “One Big, Beautiful Bill” into law and Chairmen Thompson and Boozman for listening to our input and shepherding this legislation through their respective chambers. We look forward to continuing to work with congressional partners this year on a ‘skinny’ farm bill, which should include measures to prevent a patchwork of conflicting state farming regulations and bring further certainty to the pork industry.”

NPPC advocated for the following pork priorities that were included in the “One Big, Beautiful Bill:”
• Preserving necessary resources to protect the nation’s food supply through foreign animal disease (FAD) prevention, including:
o National Animal Vaccine and Veterinary Countermeasures Bank
o National Animal Health Laboratory Network
o National Animal Disease Preparedness and Response Program
o National Veterinary Stockpile
