U.S. Senator Heidi Heitkamp today issued the following statement after the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) agreed by a 6 to 0 vote that the Mexican sugar industry has harmed U.S. producers by flooding the U.S. market with subsidized sugar from Mexico. This is great news for North Dakota sugar producers. They work tirelessly to raise crops that feed the U.S. and the world, and we cant let unfair competition from Mexico harm our hardworking sugar growers, said Heitkamp. Its critical that we enforce our trade laws to guarantee fair sugar trade between the U.S. and Mexico. And we need to take action in instances like this, when the Mexican sugar industrys trade practices hurt our countrys farmers. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
