Texas – Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller called on Congress to end the federal government shutdown, highlighting its impact on military personnel, federal law enforcement, air traffic controllers, and American farmers and ranchers.
In a statement, Miller emphasized that the shutdown is delaying vital relief for farmers and ranchers and preventing progress on addressing the U.S. agriculture trade deficit.
He noted that efforts by President Trump and Secretary Rollins to level the playing field with foreign nations cannot advance while the federal government remains closed.
Miller urged lawmakers to put the American people first, reopen the government, and ensure support for those who serve the nation and provide essential food and resources.
