John Barrasso was named to replace the late Senator Craig Thomas
from Wyoming. The Wyoming State Republican Committee made sure
their nominee, appointed by Dem Gov Freudenthal, was right on ag
issues.
Barrasso said today
he disagreed with the USDA decision to allow more Canadian cattle
imports in light of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) risks.
He also has vowed to fight for mandatory country of origin
labeling. A good first start.
Senator Enzi from Wyoming has also been right on these issues, by the way.
