Title: NCBA Hails Senate Ratification of USMCA

WASHINGTON (January 16, 2020) - National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) President Jennifer Houston issued the following statement regarding the U.S. Senate vote to ratify the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA):

'The ratification of USMCA is a crucial win for all U.S. beef producers and a reassurance that U.S. beef will continue to have unrestricted, duty-free access to Canada and Mexico. NCBA has been a strong supporter of USMCA since day one, and we believe that today's vote sends a strong message to the rest of the world that the United States believes in free and fair trade. We are thankful to every Member of Congress in both House and Senate who voted for USMCA, and we thank President Trump for continuing to secure and defend strong market access for America's cattlemen and cattlewomen.'
