Source: United States Senator for Oklahoma James Inhofe
U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) met with the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association this week in Washington. Their discussion ranged from the importance of pushing back against the Biden administration’s regulatory overreach at the EPA to current events facing cattle markets.
“The Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association has a long history of fighting for Oklahoma’s cattle ranchers and I always look forward to their Washington visit,” Inhofe said. “It has been an honor to work alongside them all these years as we advocate for government policies that will ensure they are able to keep their operations running without excessive government overreach. I look forward to keeping the tradition alive this year and continuing to work alongside them to fight for Oklahoma’s cattle industry.”
“Senator Inhofe is a champion and friend of Oklahoma beef cattle ranchers on so many issues,” said Michael Kelsey, Executive Vice President of the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association. “While chairing the Environment and Public Works Committee, he led the efforts to push back on the overreaching WOTUS rule of the Obama Administration. He successfully included $4 million in the most recent federal appropriations bill for Oklahoma’s Bureau of Narcotics to help them catch and shutdown illegal marijuana grow operations. There are many other issues like trade, military funding, tax policy and more in which Senator Inhofe provides a sound, common sense approach that directly and indirectly benefits Oklahoma cattle ranchers. OCA is proud to call him a friend and our Senator!”
