Tell VP Pence to Stop Trade War Talk
\n\u201cTrade war would be devastating to Nebraska Agriculture\u201d<\/p>\n
LINCOLN, NE \u2013 Sen. Bob Krist, candidate for Nebraska governor, said today that President Trump\u2019s threats to start a global trade war would be devastating to Nebraska\u2019s economy and called on Gov. Pete Ricketts to lobby Vice President Mike Pence to stop the Administration\u2019s threats. Vice President Pence is in Nebraska today campaigning for Gov. Ricketts.<\/p>\n
\u201cPresident Trump\u2019s threats to start a global trade war would be devastating to Nebraska agriculture, the number one exporter of beef and one of the top exporter of corn and dried distillers,\u201d Krist said.<\/p>\n
\u201cGov. Ricketts, on behalf of Nebraska cattle producers and farmers, tell Vice President Pence to stop Trump\u2019s foolhardy and dangerous threats to our farmers and ranchers\u2019 livelihoods. Protect our economy, defend Nebraska agriculture,\u201d Krist said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith his inability to solve the property tax crisis, Gov. Ricketts is losing trust from Nebraskans who work the land and raise livestock, \u201c Krist said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs Governor and strong supporter of the Trump Administration, Gov. Ricketts has an opportunity to influence the President on this most important issue to Nebraska farmers and ranchers.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Nebraska topped all other U.S. states for beef exports in 2017 for a second year in a row, exporting $1.26 billion worth of beef. In all, Nebraska\u2019s $6.4 billion in agricultural exports in 2015 translate into $7.8 billion in additional economic activity in Nebraska.<\/p>\n
\u201cTrust is the most important commodity in agriculture, and President Trump is messing with some of our most important agricultural trade partners,\u201d Krist said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlthough Nebraskans supported President Trump in the last election, Gov. Ricketts should tell Vice President Pence that Nebraska will not forget selling us down the river over a foolish trade war,\u201d Krist said.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
