Maxine Waters of California, Ranking Member on the House Financial Services Committee, and USA Rice members PJ Haynie III, Meryl Kennedy-Farr, and John Owen to the evening reception. Their participation underscored USA Rice's commitment to normalizing trade relations and expanding opportunities for U.S.-origin rice exports to the island nation.
