As you may have seen, the USDA has extended the opportunity to comment on its reorganization to September 30. The most compelling comments will focus on the potential impacts to USDA’s “customers”, namely farmers and rural communities.
Comments should be sent, by your individual farm or organization, to: [email protected]
by September 30.
Comments may be long or short, there is no suggested length.
In case you missed it, the reorganization centers around four principles:
- Ensure the Size of USDA’s Workforce Aligns with Financial Resources and Priorities
- Bring USDA Closer to Its Customers by Relocating Resources Outside of the DC Region
- Eliminating Management Layers and Bureaucracy
- Consolidate Support Functions
