Trump selects Brooke Rollins as agriculture secretary for second administration
President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Brooke Rollins, a former White House aide, to lead the Department of Agriculture in his second administration. Rollins has a background in agricultural development and law, and previously served as domestic policy chief. Rollins has strong ties to Trump, having been considered for other high-level positions. She is currently the president and CEO of the America First Policy Institute, which supports Trump's agenda. The USDA, founded in 1862, oversees farming, food safety, and nutrition programs. Trump's agriculture policies may impact farmers and consumers, especially if he implements tariffs similar to those in his first term.
