WASHINGTON, D.C. -- This week, Rep. Pat Fallon (TX-04) led a letter urging the U.S. International Trade Commission to reconsider the implemented countervailing duty on phosphate fertilizer from Morocco. Rep. Fallon was joined on this letter by 26 other representatives.

As reported in The Washington Reporter, Rep. Fallon commented:

“The US International Trade Commission should immediately reconsider the countervailing duties, put in place by the Biden Admin, on phosphate fertilizer from Morocco. Our corn, soybean, and wheat growers depend on affordable fertilizer to grow healthy, high-yielding crops, but these duties have cost American farmers billions since being implemented in 2021. This burdensome policy hurts the very individuals who feed our nation. It is time we put our farmers first and get this reversed.”

Supporting organizations include National Corn Growers Association, American Soybean Association, USA Rice, Texas Corn Producers, & Texas Farm Bureau.
