Representatives Adams and Tokuda urge the USDA to reinstate the Rural Business Center program, citing significant impacts on farmers.
Quiver AI Summary
Representatives Alma S. Adams and Jill Tokuda have called on the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to reinstate the Regional Food Business Center (RFBC) program after its funding was frozen in January and canceled in July. They emphasize that the program has provided essential support to over 5,000 farms and businesses, fostering local food supply chains.
In a letter signed by 38 House Democrats, the lawmakers warned that eliminating the RFBC would weaken market opportunities for small farmers and disrupt local food systems. They highlighted the program's alignment with USDA's commitment to support small family farms and urged a reversal of the decision, citing negative impacts already experienced by farming communities.
The representatives are requesting a response from the USDA by August 31, 2025, regarding how it plans to support farmers and agricultural producers following the cessation of the RFBC program.
