So far, Bird Flu has hit more than a dozen major commercial poultry production facilities across Indiana since the beginning of this year. The virus is having a major impact, not just on egg and poultry prices, but also on Indiana’s poultry producers and the state’s ag economy.
That’s why Sen. Todd Young (R-IN) and 15 of his Senate colleagues have written a letter to U.S. Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins encouraging her to enhance USDA’s response to the Bird Flu outbreak.
“We’re opening up, not only communication with the [Trump] administration, but encouraging the administration to work with our farmers, to work with our legislative delegation, and tackle this problem,” says Young. “We want to make sure that there’s no interruption in vital services at USDA or other government entities in response to avian flu.” [emphasis added]
This 2nd Trump administration? It's a fucking and most dangerous mess!
