I certainly want to thank you, Mr. Chairman. This has been a very, very informative hearing, and I thank you for it.
What specific policies would you recommend to combat the historic and current discrimination too often faced by Black and Brown farmers in your respective industries?
We on the Agriculture Committee have a special and unique mission to try to help solve the problem of Black farmers in our nation.
Discrimination and prejudice absolutely should not be tolerated in any government program, any organization, or any individual.
