USDA Former Secretaries USMCA Letter
September 18, 2019 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Chuck Schumer Majority Leader Minority Leader U.S. Senate U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Speaker Pelosi, Minority Leader McCarthy, Majority Leader McConnell and Minority Leader Schumer, As former Secretaries of Agriculture, we recognize how important agricultural trade is to the U.S. economy and rural America. We know from experience that improved market access creates significant benefits to U.S. farmers and ranchers. We believe that the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) will benefit American agriculture and related industries. With Canada and Mexico being the first and second largest export markets for U.S. agricultural products, we believe USMCA makes positive improvements to one of our most critical trade deals. Currently, NAFTA supports more than 900,000 jobs in the U.S. food and agriculture sector and has amplified agricultural exports to our North American neighbors to $40 billion this past year. Before NAFTA went into effect in 1994, we were exporting only $9 billion worth of agricultural products to Canada and Mexico. The International Trade Commission’s recent economic analysis concluded that USMCA would benefit our agriculture sector and would deliver an additional $2.2 billion in U.S. economic activity. Trade is extremely vital to the livelihood of American farmers and the U.S. food industry. U.S. farm production exceeds domestic demand by 25 percent. -

HAYWORTH: US Senate Candidate Domina Seeks
HAYWORTH: U.S. Senate candidate Domina seeks Nebraska foothold January 22, 2014 Bret Hayworth Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Dave Domina is looking for traction in a solidly Republican state. When speaking in South Sioux City at the Dakota Perk cafe Wednesday amid his campaign launch swing, Domina heard some math that could provide some solace. Dick Erickson, of Jackson, Neb., described living in low-population, conservative Rock County, where he was elected as a Democrat to the assessor position. Erickson said he won in spite of the Republican voter registration lead being about 850 to 250 over Democrats. "They were tired of the present administration and I think that is true today," he said. Erickson said that means an upstart can persevere through unfavorable political math. Domina, an attorney from Omaha, launched his campaign for the Senate seat in Nebraska on Tuesday. In moving through Northeast Nebraska, he made stops in Norfolk, Wayne and South Sioux City. Domina will speak in many more towns before his kickoff campaign swing ends Sunday. Domina told the crowd of 30 that he sees a winning recipe by doing well in the metropolitan Omaha and Lincoln areas, then nabbing votes in the conservative rural parts of the state lying primarily in the 3rd Congressional District. Domina said people wonder how he can win in 2014 if Bob Kerrey, a former U.S. senator, couldn't achieve a comeback win in 2012? (Kerrey lost to Republican Deb Fischer.) Domina said Kerrey had a negating factor in having lived away from the state for many years until returning to run in 2012. -

Secretary Perdue Statement on USMCA Agreement
Secretary Perdue Statement on USMCA Agreement (Washington, D.C., December 10, 2019) – U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue issued the following statement after United States Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi announced agreement on the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA): “USMCA is a big win for American workers and the economy, especially for our farmers and ranchers. The agreement improves virtually every component of the old NAFTA, and the agriculture industry stands to gain significantly,” said Secretary Perdue. “President Trump and Ambassador Lighthizer are laying the foundation for a stronger farm economy through USMCA and I thank them for all their hard work and perseverance to get the agreement across the finish line. While I am very encouraged by today’s breakthrough, we must not lose sight – the House and Senate need to work diligently to pass USMCA by Christmas.” Background: USMCA will advance United States agricultural interests in two of the most important markets for American farmers, ranchers, and agribusinesses. This high- standard agreement builds upon our existing markets to expand United States food and agricultural exports and support food processing and rural jobs. Canada and Mexico are our first and second largest export markets for United States food and agricultural products, totaling more than $39.7 billion food and agricultural exports in 2018. These exports support more than 325,000 American jobs. All food and agricultural products that have zero tariffs under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) will remain at zero tariffs. Since the original NAFTA did not eliminate all tariffs on agricultural trade between the United States and Canada, the USMCA will create new market access opportunities for United States exports to Canada of dairy, poultry, and eggs, and in exchange the United States will provide new access to Canada for some dairy, peanut, and a limited amount of sugar and sugar-containing products.
