ICA commends the leadership and latest action of USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins . If Mexico wants continued access to the US market, prioritizing livestock heath and safety and collaboration towards that effort must be a condition. Thank you, Madam Secretary!

On May 11th, the USDA took the swift and necessary action of suspending imports of cattle, bison and equine from Mexico to stop the spread of New World screwworm. The leadership of Secretary Brooke Rollins puts U.S. producers first & will prove to protect the long-term health of the U.S. herd

ICA stands prepared to assist folks affected by the floods. We have tractors and other machine equipment resources in the area and readily available, for those needing assistance with livestock loss and debris cleanup. Please contact the ICA State Office at (512)620-0162.

ICA extols Secretary Rollins for her latest action to eradicate the growing threat of New World Screwworm (NWS) with announcing the USDA’s profound investment of $750 million dollars in a NWS sterile fly production facility in Edinburg, Texas.

For cattlemen, Labor Day is just like any other. It’s not a day off but another day cattle need moved, water needs checked, hay needs put up, calves need shipped, and fence needs mended. Use today to honor the dedicated labor of those who steward our land and raise our livestock.
