Encouragement For Sound Science in Decision Making Continues as MAHA Report Draws Nearer
As the Make America Healthy Again Commission (MAHA) approaches its May 24 report release deadline, the importance of sound science in its evaluations, particularly concerning agricultural inputs, has been emphasized by several key stakeholders.
IFCA joined a coalition of organizations in sending a letter to the Commission in March, urging them to prioritize sound science. The letter highlighted the critical role of modern agricultural tools like pesticides and biotechnology in maintaining a healthy food system. It cautioned against policy changes based on misleading studies, advocating for conclusions drawn from robust scientific data.
CropLife America also has launched a grassroots letter campaign for farmers and others involved in agriculture to directly contact President Trump, other relevant Cabinet officials, and their members of Congress using this link.
The Agricultural Retailers Association (ARA) plans to launch a similar letter campaign for ag retailers soon.
