Quiver AI Summary
In a recent press release, Pablo José Hernández, the Resident Commissioner in Washington, expressed urgent concerns regarding the reported closure of U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offices in Utuado and Mayagüez. He emphasized that these offices are essential for local farmers, rural development, and food assistance programs, stating, "These offices are not just buildings; they are lifelines."
Hernández has requested clarity from the USDA about whether the closures are temporary or permanent, and whether local leaders and communities were consulted prior to the decision. He highlighted that "every door the USDA closes in Utuado or Mayagüez is a door closed to food security and economic opportunities," urging the federal government to support rural areas in Puerto Rico.
A written response from the USDA is requested by August 18, along with a meeting to discuss plans for continuing services to affected communities. Hernández has a history of advocating for access to federal resources for rural areas.
