Yes: plant, not plastic. Proud to support @USDA, @SecRollins, and the Great American Cotton Plan. American-grown cotton supports our farmers, strengthens rural communities, fuels U.S. manufacturing, and gives families a natural alternative to synthetic, plastic-based materials.
This plan helps Make America Healthy Again.
Today we launched the Great American Cotton Plan — a bold 4-pillar strategy to strengthen and secure the future of American cotton.
1️⃣ Promote American-grown cotton over foreign synthetic fibers and plastics
2️⃣ Expand domestic production and support U.S. textile manufacturing
3️⃣ Open new export markets and boost global demand for U.S. cotton
4️⃣ Protect growers from pests, trade pressures, and economic risk
From new trade agreements to expanded support for textile mills and increased global demand, @USDA, @SBA, and @HHSgov are working together to restore America’s cotton strength and competitiveness. Under @POTUS, American agriculture is back!! 🇺🇸💪👖
Last week Ag Council leaders convened in Marianna to hold a roundtable discussion about the farm economy. Following the meeting we submitted 2 letters to Washington warning of our concerns & calling for actions to help Arkansas farmers.
Farmers feed America. But they need certainty to plan for the future. A new five-year farm bill would ensure our producers have the tools to keep our food supply affordable and secure.
