"It's clear Americans feel strongly that the federal government should stay out of the milk pricing business," said Connie Tipton, IDFA president and CEO. "Dairy is a dietary staple and a primary source of essential nutrition to tens of millions of Americans. Artificially raising milk prices by manipulating the market, as proposed in the Farm Bill's Dairy Security Act, hurts consumers and it hurts taxpayers," she said.

The Dairy Business Association and the Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association say they appreciate Rep. Reid Ribble's support of Wisconsin's dairy industry through his vote in favor of the Goodlatte/Scott amendment to the 2012 Farm Bill. As Wisconsin's only member on the U.S. House Agriculture Committee, Congressman Ribble worked to find a compromise to eliminate a so-called 'dairy stabilization plan,' a complex government intervention in commercial transactions intended to control the supply of milk from farms.
