For the fourth year in a row, the Administration’s trade agenda has provided no serious plan to improve global market access for Americans. Our farmers and businesses will continue to lose out if the Administration doesn't begin working with Congress.

The Administration must do more to pursue effective trade agreements that open foreign markets to American products. Idahoan farmers and business will continue to lose out on economic opportunities to countries like China if we don’t take swift action.

The sharp decline in U.S. agricultural exports is avoidable, unacceptable and the direct result of the unambitious trade strategy of this Administration. We must do more to meaningfully expand market access and reduce trade barriers for American farmers.

A competitive tax system is instrumental in manufacturers’ decision of where to invest. Shoring up supply chains and making the TCJA tax reforms permanent would create a stable, healthy environment for manufacturers to invest in American jobs.
