"The International Dairy Foods Association commends the U.S. Chamber of Commerce for raising the voice of the business community today, calling on Congress to swiftly pass the U.S.-Mexico-Canada agreement. Our nation’s food and agriculture leaders have remained unified and consistent in our support for USMCA.
