Despite an ongoing global pandemic, national stay-at-home orders, and spring cattle work, members of the United States Cattlemen's Association (USCA) still found a way to "travel" to Washington, D.C. and meet with their Members of Congress.
From June 15-17, nearly 50 cattle producers from 15 states participated in the first-ever virtual Washington, DC "Fly-In." This year proved an especially critical time to meet with lawmakers as producers grapple with COVID-19-related losses and the Department of Justice undertakes an investigation into anti-competitive behavior by the Big Four meatpackers.
