Boots and Hats Back at the White House

On this episode, fifth-generation California rancher and NCBA Past-President Kevin Kester joins to share what it was like standing with President Donald J. Trump at the White House during a press conference on the One Big Beautiful Bill. Kester explains how the One Big Beautiful Bill supports cattle farmers and ranchers by increasing the Death Tax exemption and expanding tax deduction and provisions that help producers keep more of their hard-earned money. Kester was at the White House in President Trump’s first term to support the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, but now that bill is set to expire at the end of the year. To avoid a massive tax hike, Congress must pass the One Big Beautiful Bill. Kester also shares information on NCBA’s advocacy in Washington and ways cattle producers can get involved in NCBA’s grassroots policy process.
