In a recent episode of the AgPro podcast, Hunter Carpenter, Director of Public Policy at the Ag Retailers Association, shares the latest from our nation’s capital.
This includes:
- Details on the recent action surrounding WOTUS
- What priorities are for Congress with only 40 legislative days left in the year
- Will we see USMCA reach the President’s desk in 2019?
- Insights on international trade and how it’s affecting ag retail
Carpenter also shares that the staff at ARA has responded to 100% of the inquiries sent via the association’s DC Help Desk. A recent example includes a retailer reaching out about tariffs and how ARA was able to help them navigate the steps in the federal registrar and also voice its support.
