Rep. Sharice Davids visited agricultural operations in Kansas this week to address concerns about the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement.

The representative told farm owners that ongoing review of the trade deal creates uncertainty. This instability makes it difficult for producers to plan for the future or invest in their businesses. Farmers at the meetings asked for more stable trade conditions across North America to protect their operations.

Participants also raised worries about wide-ranging tariffs. They stressed that stable relationships with trading partners are essential for maintaining farm profitability throughout the state. Industry leaders provided data to support these concerns, noting that commerce with Canada and Mexico supports more than 43,000 jobs in Kansas.

Davids conducted these visits during the current congressional recess. Her goal was to hear directly from producers about how trade policies affect their daily work. The discussions focused on the immediate impact of regulatory changes on local agriculture.

The representative will return to Washington, D.C., to continue her congressional duties. The review process for the trade agreement remains active as officials assess its current status.
