Description

On this episode, NCBA Executive Director of Government Affairs Kent Bacus joins to discuss Brazil’s unfair trade practices. The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative has initiated a section 301 investigation into Brazil’s harmful practices and NCBA testified at a hearing to raise the American cattle industry’s concerns. NCBA is calling for the U.S. to halt Brazilian beef imports due to Brazil’s concerning history of failing to report animal health issues in a timely manner. Bacus also explains why NCBA supports President Trump’s tariffs on Brazil but wants to see the Trump administration take further action to hold Brazil accountable.
