I was proud to help secure this important funding opportunity for our land-grant universities through the Working Families Tax Cuts last summer, and I thank President Trump, Secretary Rollins, and USDA for their efforts to support our farmers who feed and fuel our nation.” This funding opportunity will be administered through the USDA’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture.
