The debate over USDA mass reorganization plans intensifies

The debate over USDA mass reorganization plans intensifies5. Nov.8 Min.

Back-and-forth arguments over the Agriculture Department’s mass reorganization plans are intensifying. The American Federation of Government Employees is seeking to stay a pending appeal motion from USDA. That’s as USDA is attempting to reverse a court injunction that’s been blocking the reorganization effort. Despite a federal judge ordering USDA to halt its plans, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins says USDA is “full-bore ahead” on the reorganization. AFGE has been suing USDA over the plans, calling them an unlawful attempt at a reduction in force.
