The International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA) is sharing a comprehensive set of federal policy priorities today with President-Elect Trump’s transition team. IDFA President and CEO Michael Dykes, D.V.M., said IDFA and its more than 300 members are looking to the new administration to help U.S. dairy drive innovation, reduce barriers to business efficiency, and open new market access for healthy, nutritious U.S. dairy products around the world.
“IDFA is pleased to share the priorities of the dairy industry with President-Elect Trump’s transition team leaders to build new momentum and drive greater prosperity across the U.S. dairy supply chain,” said Dykes. “We look forward to a productive working relationship with President-Elect Trump and his team.”
Dykes continued: “U.S. dairy is the most productive in the world, but workforce challenges, dwindling export market opportunities, and burdensome regulations are creating uncertainty for our industry. By presenting these policy priorities, we are looking for areas of collaboration with the Trump administration so U.S. dairy farmers and processors can usher in a new golden age in healthy, high-quality, U.S. dairy nutrition.”
IDFA, based in Washington, D.C., represents the nation’s dairy manufacturing and marketing industry, which supports more than 3.2 million jobs that generate $49 billion in direct wages and $794 billion in overall economic impact. IDFA’s diverse membership ranges from multinational organizations to single-plant companies, from dairy companies and cooperatives to food retailers and suppliers. Together, they represent most of the milk, cheese, ice cream, yogurt and cultured products, and dairy ingredients produced and marketed in the United States and sold throughout the world. IDFA advocates on behalf of America’s dairy industry to ensure its members and their employees have the tools and resources they need to provide consumers with healthy, safe, and wholesome American-made dairy products.
