Politico’s Grace Yarrow reported that “Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said Sunday that USDA’s plans to move much of its D.C.-based staff to five hubs across the country are ‘about 95 percent’ finalized.”
“‘Most of America seems to love’ the plan, Rollins told reporters during USDA’s farmers market event Sunday. ‘The uniparty here in Washington, D.C., hasn’t been quite as excited about it,'” Yarrow reported. “USDA opened a public comment period on the reorganization plan, after frustration from allies on Capitol Hill and in the agriculture industry who felt surprised by and left out of the plans.”
“‘We worked six months on that plan,’ Rollins said,” according to Yarrow’s reporting. “‘I feel really good about it. If I were to game it, I’d say it’s about 95 percent baked. But always open and willing and excited to get that feedback and I expect a lot more.'”
