The Department of Commerce just ended 30 years of stability by ending the Tomato Suspension Agreement. Now, 80% of the tomatoes Americans rely on will be slapped with a 17% tax- jacking up prices for South Texas. I will fight this every step of the way.

On Friday, I urged the U.S. Department of Commerce to continue the Tomato Suspension Agreement. This longstanding agreement supports trade that benefits Texas jobs, protects consumers, and ensures access to fresh, affordable produce across the state, especially in South Texas.

Democrats, take a break; process this loss. Wait for the full data and then listen, learn, and react. But here's what won’t help: DO NOT BLAME THE VOTERS. It is not voters' responsibility to come to us; it is our responsibility to go to them.
