"The CRP payments that folks depend on to pay property taxes and other bills are being held up because FSA headquarters has shut down the ability to make minor contract modifications. There are more than 930 such cases across Minnesota. When I raised this issue in a conversation with Secretary Perdue last week, he promised me that it would be fixed. This is something USDA has the power to address, as it did in 2013, and it should do so immediately." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
