• Secretary Rollins confirms imported beef is undercutting American ranchers while prices keep rising.
• Rollins lays out practical steps to protect domestic supply and bring costs down for families.
• The administration is prioritizing U.S. producers over globalist trade deals that hurt Main Street.

U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins sat down with Breitbart News to deliver a direct message on the future of American beef. She made clear that skyrocketing prices and unchecked imports are squeezing both ranchers and consumers.

Rollins emphasized that the current flood of foreign beef is not sustainable and warned that it threatens the long-term health of U.S. cattle operations. She tied the issue to broader concerns about food security and national self-reliance.

“We are going to make sure that American ranchers come first, and that means looking hard at the import numbers that are driving prices up instead of down.”

She outlined steps the department is examining to stabilize the market without adding new layers of bureaucracy. Rollins stressed that the focus remains on removing obstacles for domestic producers rather than expanding government programs.

“Lowering costs for American families starts with protecting the supply chain we already have right here at home.”

The remarks come as ranchers across cattle country continue to report margin pressure and as grocery bills for beef remain elevated. Rollins said the administration is committed to reversing the trend through smarter trade oversight and support for independent operations.
