In a statement, Trump said, “As our next Secretary of Agriculture, Brooke will spearhead the effort to protect American Farmers, who are truly the backbone of our Country...Brooke’s commitment to support the American Farmer, defense of American Food Self-Sufficiency, and the restoration of Agriculture-dependent American Small Towns is second to none,” according to Reuters.

Rollins is confident that her background in agriculture as well as her experience with policy in Trump’s previous Administration makes her a good fit for this job.
