U.S. Representatives Renew Congressional Bourbon Caucus For The 117th Congress
Recently, two of Kentucky’s six members in the U.S. House of Representatives Democrat John Yarmuth and Republican Andy Barr announced the renewal of the Congressional Bourbon Caucus (CBC).
Started in 2009 by Rep. Yarmuth, the CBC is a bipartisan group within the House that advocates on behalf of the U.S. bourbon industry and helping to educate their fellow lawmakers on the issues and regulations that are affecting distillers and distributors.

Sen. Ron Wyden has a new award to add to his collection: the Oregon Wine Leadership Award. The award, an etched glass decanter, was presented to Oregon’s senior U.S. senator by the Oregon Winegrowers Association (OWA) at their annual membership meeting on Feb. 17.
The award recognizes Wyden’s long history of advocacy on behalf of Oregon’s wine industry. Wyden’s efforts range from fighting to remove trade barriers that negatively impact American wines to cutting red tape for wineries at the federal Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau.
