Secretary Brooke Rollins: “We canceled a contract in New York educating transgender and queer farmers on food justice and food equality. I’m not even sure what that means but apparently the last administration wanted to put our taxpayer dollars towards that.”
From meeting: “We just had a wonderful cabinet meeting, all aligned on certainly the effort to realign the government. But even at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, we’ve canceled a $300,000 contract educating on food justice for queer and transgender farmers in San Francisco.
A similar contract we canceled in New York, again educating transgender and queer farmers on food justice and food equality. I’m not even sure what that means but apparently the last administration wanted to put our taxpayer dollars towards that. We canceled a $600,000 contract out of Louisiana that was studying the menstrual cycles of transgender men. A $600,000 contract.
We canceled another contract out of a university in the middle of the country that focused on getting more diversity, equity, and inclusion into our pest management industry. Again, these are nonsensical. It makes zero sense to use taxpayer dollars to fund these. I know these are just a few examples of the hundreds and hundreds that we have found.”
