  • @POTUS‘s economic agenda has been about generating growth & innovation by giving the American people more opportunities and financial security. @USDA is proud to make investments that help make the lives of families a little easier.
  • The Inflation Reduction Act helps families save on prescription drugs & health premiums and supports farmers, ranchers, and forest landowners competing in a global economy with climate smart investments. @POTUS promised to lower costs for regular families. This bill does that.
