GOP Cattle-State Senators Oppose Trump's Beef Tariff Waiver

Four Republican lawmakers from cattle states — Senators Barrasso, Ricketts, Sheehy, and Iowa nominee Hison — oppose Trump's 90-day waiver on beef tariffs covering 300,000 metric tons of imported ground beef. They argue the imports undercut domestic ranchers already facing a 75-year cattle inventory low. A tariff is a tax on imported goods; waiving it makes foreign beef cheaper.
