MADISON, Wis. (AP) — As Gov. Scott Walker praises President Donald Trump for imposing tariffs on Canada following a policy change that left dozens of Wisconsin farms without a milk buyer, a state official says more than half of the farms have found buyers or promising leads.
Gov. Scott Walker says he spoke with President Donald Trump about the nearly 40 Wisconsin dairy farmers desperately seeking help after being dropped by their milk buyer following a Canadian policy change. Walker told Trump on Twitter Tuesday that it was “great” to speak to him that morning and thanked him for supporting Wisconsin dairy farmers. A spokesman for Walker didn’t immediately respond to a message seeking more detail. Trump referenced the crisis a few hours earlier on Twitter, saying Canada has made business for dairy farmers in Wisconsin “and other border states” difficult. Trump, when visiting Wisconsin last week, vowed to help the farms dropped by Grassland Dairy.
