Attacking a Livelihood: Sheep producers look to secure a trade investigation on imported lamb

Producers are calling for immediate action to protect their livelihoods as the industry continues to investigate imported lamb.

Lawmakers must sign a “Dear Colleague” letter by tomorrow.

The effort is being led by Congressman Doug LaMalfa, Chair of the Western Caucus.
