The National Corn Growers Association Friday applauded members of the House Ways and Means Committee who voted to advance the Bipartisan Congressional Trade Priorities and Accountability Act of 2015 (TPA-2015) out of committee Thursday evening and urged Congress to quickly pass the bill.
"Thank you to the House Ways and Means Committee members who voted to advance Trade Promotion Authority out of committee and keep this important legislation moving forward," said NCGA president Chip Bowling, a farmer from Newburg, Maryland.
"Trade Promotion Authority will help the U.S. to reach major international trade agreements that support American farmers, businesses, and rural communities. It's time to act. We urge the Senate and House to bring this legislation to a floor vote as soon as possible."
