Rollins gets unanimous support from Ag Committee

President Trump’s nominee for Agriculture Secretary received unanimous support from the Senate Ag Committee.  All 23 committee members voted to approve Brooke Rollins to lead the USDA.

During her nomination hearing last week, Rollins told the Ag Committee her top priorities are to ensure disaster and economic aid recently approved by Congress is deployed quickly and efficiently, work with stakeholders to get a handle on animal disease outbreaks and modernize the USDA.

The Ag Committee voted late Monday.  Now, Rollins awaits a vote of the full U.S. Senate, which is expected next week.
