NPPC Lobbying For U.S.-Vietnam Trade Deal

The National Pork Producers Council stressed trade deals, particularly with one Asian nation, during their recent Legislative Action Conference. NPPC president Jen Sorenson, a pork producer from Iowa, says the group wants more trade with Vietnam, but needs help with market access.

The NPPC is looking to U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai for assistance in getting more U.S. pork into Vietnam.

National Pork Producers Council President Jen Sorenson says the group discussed additional top priorities, including animal health issues and the significant labor shortage in the industry, during their discussions with lawmakers.
