Theresa Greenfield on Free Trade

 

 


Supports USMCA, expanding export opportunities

She understands the importance of trade in Iowa's economy, and supports the USMCA and the benefits it brings Iowa farmers and businesses. With her small business experience, she is passionate about helping entrepreneurs and startups with issues like increasing access to capital, expanding export opportunities, and cutting through burdensome red tape.

Reckless trade policies have kept markets closed to farmers

We've seen increased farm bankruptcies and reckless trade policies that have kept markets closed to farmers, and net farm income in Iowa has drastically fallen. We've got to commit to ending these irresponsible tariffs, unfair ethanol policies, and ensure we stand with our agricultural communities to pick up the pieces left in its wake.

Number one issue for farmers is regaining foreign markets

Greenfield worries about the pressures on farmers of a trade war that has obstructed their access to Chinese markets and the Trump administration's efforts to relax rules requiring oil refineries to use corn-based ethanol. "Rut right now, honestly, the number one thing I hear from them is, 'We need our markets back,' so they can just start turning a profit and then can go on to have some of these other fights that they want to have."
