Texas – Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller released a statement on Sept. 3, 2025, praising President Donald Trump and U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins for their leadership in reducing the nation’s agricultural trade deficit.
Miller cited a new forecast from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) showing signs of improvement in the deficit, which he attributed to the administration’s trade policies.
“This progress is a direct result of the bold leadership of both U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and President Trump and their prioritization of agricultural trade,” Miller said. “They advocate for farmers, challenge China and unwarranted export burdens, and ensure America’s producers are receiving fair treatment.”
Miller emphasized the importance of supporting farmers and ranchers in Texas, calling agriculture a global leader that must remain competitive on the international stage.
“Fortunately, we finally have an administration that is prioritizing farmers and ranchers,” he said. “I want to thank President Trump and his administration for this vital support.”
