Agriculture Sec. Brooke Rollins on Reforming Food Benefits and Returning Power to the States

The Department of Agriculture is walking point on federal food-stamp reform, and Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins joins All Things to talk about the more controversial changes. She explains the need for work requirements and cost sharing in the program--both proposals in congressional Republicans' "Big Beautiful Bill"--as well as her "passion" for "devolving power back to the people" by granting states waivers to innovate in their food-assistance programs, including by implementing new restrictions on the purchase of sugary drinks and snacks. Rollins also lays out Donald Trump's ambitious plans for the U.S. Forest Service to help revitalize American timber production and cut back on wildfires.  Learn more about your ad choices.
