First commercial U.S. rice shipment to 🇨🇳 cleared customs this week. China is the world’s top rice consumer–expect to build on this sale w/ much more in the future. This is a good 1st step to what we hope to be many more shipments of high quality, nutritious & affordable 🇺🇸 rice.

The 1st ever commercial shipment of #USgrown #rice was unloaded in #China today, following more than a decade of regulatory & political effort by @usaricenews to establish a two-way trading relationship. #resilience

I've had the privilege of visiting Kenya & meeting with President Kenyatta several times. It's positive to hear discussions will begin on a free trade agreement. I'm hopeful this will open the door to more mutually beneficial agreements with other nations. enzi.senate.gov/public/index…

The U.S. won a $7.5 Billion award from the World Trade Organization against the European Union, who has for many years treated the USA very badly on Trade due to Tariffs, Trade Barriers, and more. This case going on for years, a nice victory!
