Senators Deb Fischer (R-NE), Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS), James Lankford (R-OK), and Roger Marshall (R-KS) also cosponsored the resolution. “Minnesota cattle producers are vital for our agricultural economy, putting food on tables across our state and nationwide,” said Senator Klobuchar. “Officially designating May as National Beef Month is a well-earned recognition of their hard work and dedication.” “Nebraska is the beef state. Last year, we led the nation with over $1.75 billion in beef exports. We lead the nation in commercial cattle slaughter, with over 6 million head. We have the top three beef-producing counties in the nation,” said Senator Ricketts. “Nebraska’s ranchers are the best in the world. They’ve shown it this year in response to this spring’s devastating fires across the state. I’m confident they will rebuild and I’m grateful to honor them in the month of May.” “The Minnesota State Cattlemen’s Association is thrilled to have the month of May designated as National Beef Month, recognizing the hard working cattle producers and the importance of beef production across the nation. We thank Senators Amy Klobuchar and Pete Ricketts for leading this resolution,” the Minnesota State Cattlemen’s Association said in a statement. ### | 1 | 2026-05-07T13:38:59Z | 2026-05-07T13:40:28Z |
