I recently introduced the Farm Subsidy Transparency Act (H.R. 3794/S. 1980), along with Senator Booker, which will require USDA to track and publicly disclose the race and gender of all individuals who receive or who are denied farm assistance.
Rush discusses a bill aimed at transparency in farm assistance based on race and gender.

Discrimination and prejudice absolutely should not be tolerated in any government program, any organization, or any individual.
Like my colleagues, I am also a strong advocate for a comprehensive Federal policy legislation.
I introduced a bill to help address this very problem entitled the Blue Collar to Green Collar Jobs Act, which will create a program at DOE to improve education and training for jobs in the clean energy-related sector.
I have been proud to champion electric vehicle infrastructure modeling, and specifically infrastructure for urban and rural underserved areas.
