Jordan Hansen reports:
President Donald Trump has announced that 300,000 metric tons of product for ground beef to be imported without a tariff quota for the next 90 days and it has been met with criticism both in Montana and beyond.
Agricultural advocacy organizations immediately hammered the plan and even some Republican politicians have been critical of the plan, including Montana’s Sen. Tim Sheehy.
“I’ve advised President Trump against this course of action for a year because American ranchers have been struggling against the packer monopoly for decades, and this will further harm them – most of whom are MAGA Republicans,” Sheehy, a Republican, posted on X. [emphasis added]
He said Trump’s “heart is in the right place” for trying to lower food prices, but the “reality is this action will make it more difficult for American ranchers to rebuild our herd and bring prices down for the American people.”
The rest of Montana’s all-Republican federal delegation have been against the move as well.
