Ernst Fights to Protect the Food Supply

Press Release

"As a leader in the agriculture industry, Iowa's contribution to the food on our tables cannot be overstated. The spread of avian flu has had devastating effects on our farmers, rural communities, and the entire food supply chain, and it's abundantly clear that we need to better prepare for and prevent future animal disease threats. Just one outbreak of a foreign animal disease would wreak havoc on Iowa's economy and our ability to feed consumers worldwide. Food security is national security, and that's why I'm acting now to protect our animals and our food supply."
