Donald Trump wants to bring 300,000 metric tons of ground beef into the United States without import fees. Under this proposal, the full 300,000 metric tons of ground beef will be brought in without facing taxes. The meat enters tax free.
U.S. cattle ranchers strongly object. Ranchers in Florida, Kentucky, and Mississippi warn the plan could cause damage. They cite financial damage as their reason for opposing the proposal. These ranchers argue that importing 300,000 metric tons of ground beef tariff free will cause harm to the U.S. cattle industry.
