Ag Sec. Brooke Rollins joins Cow Guy Close to discuss eminent domain and the “Big, Beautiful Bill”

A family farm in New Jersey is at risk of being seized by the town via eminent domain.

Andy and Christopher Henry own their family’s 175-year-old farm, and their situation recently caught the attention of Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins. She took to X last week, saying, “We must protect family farms at all costs.”

She joined Scott “The Cow Guy” Shellady to share her thoughts on the subject, as well as an update on the “Big, Beautiful Bill.”
