Congressman Schweikert Urges Protections for Arizona’s Tomato Imports, Cross Border Trade Protections

WASHINGTON, DC – Yesterday, Congressman David Schweikert (AZ-06) sent a letter with Members of the Arizona Delegation to the International Trade Commission (ITC) highlighting the importance of cross-border trade for tomatoes to the economy of Arizona.

“Arizona’s relationship with neighbor Mexico supports thousands of jobs across the state and is a driver of our economic growth,” said Congressman Schweikert. “I am pleased to see the Arizona delegation stay consistent in working together to protect our cross-border trading relationships and Arizona jobs from harmful trade restrictions.”

Congressman Schweikert was joined by Senator Kyrsten Sinema, Senator Martha McSally, and Congressman Tom O’Halleran in sending the letter.
