Mike Levin: “The reality is we can do both common-sense water storage, and desal, and recycling, and conservation.”

I am also concerned that, following staffing cuts in 2025, USDA has failed to fill critical positions that support coordination with the Department of Veterans Affairs on veteran hunger.

My vote today does not reflect a position on changing the composition and structure of the Supreme Court.

This blatant weaponization of federal taxpayer dollars to punish states based on their political leanings is wholly inappropriate and in violation of the Fifth Amendment’s guarantee of equal protection of the laws.

USDA must take these findings seriously and act quickly to address the gaps identified by GAO.
