U.S. Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kansas) has expressed support for the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) recent announcement that Kansas City will become the second largest beneficiary in the agency’s workforce reorganization. The restructuring was detailed by Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins as part of a broader government initiative led by the Trump administration to streamline federal agencies, reduce redundancy, and maintain essential taxpayer services.
“There are no stronger champions for American farmers and ranchers than Secretary Rollins and President Trump,” said Senator Marshall. “Today’s announcements build on President Trump’s efforts in his first Administration to move those who work closest with our farmers and ranchers to our nation’s heartland. This is putting Farmer’s First.”
Secretary Rollins stated, “American agriculture feeds, clothes, and fuels this nation and the world, and it is long past time the Department better serve the great and patriotic farmers, ranchers, and producers we are mandated to support. President Trump was elected to make real change in Washington, and we are doing just that by moving our key services outside the beltway and into great American cities across the country. We will do so through a transparent and common-sense process that preserves USDA’s critical health and public safety services the American public relies on. We will do right by the great American people who we serve and with respect to the thousands of hardworking USDA employees who so nobly serve their country.”
