Press Release
Congressman Dan Kildee (MI-05) issued the following statement today after the U.S. Department of Commerce announced a final agreement on sugar trade between the U.S. and Mexico:
“I am pleased that the Department of Commerce has reached a deal with the Mexican government to stop illegal dumping of foreign sugar in America. Family farms in my district and across the country are struggling, and this agreement will help provide relief from unfair trade practices. I applaud Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue for their work. I will work with them to ensure that this deal is enforced and that our sugar policy works in the best interests of American farmers.”
