Thank you, @USDA and @USTradeRep, for protecting access for over $220 million in annual dairy exports by securing Indonesia’s revocation of its Halal pre-shipment inspection requirement and negotiating a two-year delay of its planned Halal supply chain mandate that would introduce barriers to dairy trade. We look forward to working with the administration to secure a long term solution that keeps dairy exports flowing to this important market.

Happy National School Lunch Week! Because most children and adolescents don’t meet daily dairy recommendations, school meals can help close the gap and bring students closer to nutrient recommendations for calcium, vitamin D, potassium and other nutrients provided by both flavored and unflavored milk.

👏Thank you to USDA for this significant boost to U.S. farmers and to the fight against world hunger. We’re proud that USDA’s announcement includes funding for ready-to-use therapeutic food, which in incorporates U.S. milk powder to treat the worst forms of malnutrition worldwide.

IF this imported ground beef that's receiving special tariff treatment is indeed from Brazil, which has NOT been confirmed by this administration, @nmpf's president and CEO Gregg Doud tells me it will never make it to the retail shelf. “That would all have to be blended together, and essentially all of that would go into food service or fast food — fast food hamburger,” Doud says. Asked whether the imported beef would actually reach grocery store shelves, Doud says no, pointing instead to two narrow outlets. “You might, the other place you might see some of it is in a can of chunky soup, like Campbell’s Chunky Soup,” Doud says. “That would be about the only two places you would see it.” youtube.com/watch?v=AWtuH6…

A report from the UK, where you've got your @Alpro Coco, your @CalifiaFarms Oat, etc. What you don't have is any of these plant-based beverages calling themselves "milk" -- yet somehow, consumers seem to know what it is. So why be so patronizing toward Americans? Oh yeah ... marketing. @FDA, please help.

NMPF President & CEO Gregg Doud discusses the need for #Canada to change its approach to U.S. dairy in trade negotiations on @FoxNews. With #tariffs on the way, good-faith talks are key, and a deal remains possible. foxnews.com/video/64042706…

Thank you @RepTenney for prioritizing conversations with NY dairy farmers & especially for your support of solutions for continuing to protect & develop a strong workforce for American agriculture. SAWA is an important step toward creating more options for family dairy farms.

The Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, aka EPCRA, requires industry to report on the storage, use, and release of hazardous substances to federal, state, and local governments.🎧Listen to our podcast for how NMPF has been fighting unintended consequences of this law for decades: nmpf.org/dairy-farmers-…

We’re thankful for @RepVanOrden’s support of the Securing Agriculture’s Workforce Act, which would finally provide dairy access to the H-2A program, helping solve the decades long workforce challenges faced by dairy producers. This is critical for the long-term viability of family dairy farms across America.

Thank you to @RepFinstad for supporting the Securing Agriculture’s Workforce Act of 2026, which removes the seasonal restriction and opens H-2A to year-round dairy work for the first time — a fix dairy producers have sought for decades.

Dairy cows must be milked on a fixed schedule, every day of the year. A sudden labor gap does not pause production. We’re grateful @RepFischbach for supporting the Securing Agriculture’s Workforce Act, which would offer dairy farmers access to the H-2A visa program.

A stable dairy workforce is what keeps milk, cheese, and other dairy staples affordable and on shelves. Thank you, @RepHuizenga, for supporting the Securing Agriculture’s Workforce Act, offering dairy farmers a workable guestworker program.

Dairy farming is a 365-day-a-year operation, and H-2A has always been restricted to seasonal labor. We’re grateful to @RepMoolenaar for supporting the Securing Agriculture’s Workforce Act, which removes the seasonal restrictions of the visa program, finally getting dairy access to H-2A.

We teamed up with @NABCBlues this week for the third year in a row to host an Ice Cream Social celebrating National Ice Cream Month and National Blueberry Month, and it was a treat in more ways than one! Hundreds of Hill staff stopped by for a scoop.

We're grateful to @SenatorRisch @SenatorBaldwin @RepJohnJoyce and @RepRileyNY for reminding @FDA_KyleD that labeling integrity is a matter of basic consumer protection. People deserve to know what it is that they're eating.

Mislabeled dairy imitation products harm Idaho’s dairy producers and mislead consumers. I led a letter calling on the FDA to put an end to dishonest branding of dairy products.

Last week, the White House announced a reciprocal trade agreement with Jordan that delivers some real wins for dairy. While U.S. dairy exporters already have zero-tariff access to Jordan under the existing U.S.-Jordan Free Trade Agreement, the new deal adds important protections for common cheese names and preempts burdensome dairy facility registration requirements and other nontariff barriers. 👏👏👏
