Biosecurity First
Protecting American cattle from foreign diseases like the screwworm must be the top priority. Any reopening must be accompanied by ironclad inspection protocols to prevent future outbreaks.
Support Ranchers
The government must ensure that U.S. ranchers are not disadvantaged by imports, especially if there's any lingering health risk or if it undermines fair competition for American producers.
Secure Borders
This incident highlights the need for secure borders, not just for people but also for goods and animals. Vigilant enforcement prevents agricultural threats and protects our food supply.
