Under the Biden administration, the Department of Agriculture is being forced to pander to the left's extreme ideology instead of helping farmers in rural communities. While farmers struggle with the increasing cost of inputs caused by the Biden administration, the Biden Department of Agriculture is focusing on equity and climate change. The Department of Agriculture's job is to support farmers and rural communities, not political equity reports. I urge my colleagues to stand with me and support this amendment to ensure that no funds go toward the Biden administration's woke agenda policies. Let us refocus the USDA on its core mission of supporting farmers in rural communities. I urge the adoption of my amendment, and I reserve the balance of my time.
