USDA union leaders rally against proposed DC downsizing

Union leaders from the USDA are rallying against a proposed plan to relocate over 2,500 employees from D.C. to regional offices nationwide, arguing it's a move that would undermine the department's efficiency and presence. The online briefing highlighted concerns that this reorganization could weaken the USDA's impact on policy and decision-making, especially in the capital. This push against the downsizing underscores broader tensions within federal agencies about the implications of administrative changes during the Trump administration.
