Radical proposal demands that Congress bar USDA from carrying out this potentially illegal move.https://norton.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/norton-requests-joint-hearing-to-examine-proposal-to-relocate-two-usda …

      Worst news yet on relocating USDA agencies: the Trump admin also wants to transfer ERS into a political office, destroying objective value of its research. No admin should be allowed to silence independent agencies because their research may sometimes differ from admin policies.

          We knew @POTUS wasn't a fan of Washington, DC power structures & agencies. What to do? You, the @OversightDems, & @AGKarlRacine decided to vociferously advocate & litigate to throw him out of office. Truly, you don't have the ability to accomplish anything of note. Ineffectual!

          Was talking to a former member of Congress today & brought up @eleanor4dc. Comment came back that our delegate can’t change & can’t adapt. We have had this for 28 yrs. 2 more to go. Strategic, passionate, empathetic, bold, forward thinking independence is coming. We will be free.

          Thank you for standing up for ERS!! I work there, live in DC, and appreciate your advocacy. The admin is not only planning what you say, but it's still trying to cut our budget in half. We need to *grow* in order to really cover the many under-studied food and ag econ issues.
