WASHINGTON, May 21 -- Sen. John Thune, R-South Dakota, issued the following commentary:
* * *
There is a high demand for high quality U.S.-raised beef in this country. If there was any doubt, the bare supermarket shelves throughout parts of 2020 proved it. I believe the South Dakota producers who work day in and day out to raise this livestock should be the ones benefitting from this high market demand, but that's not exactly what's happening these days.
