Limit the Agriculture Department's role by statute
What the document says“Congress must limit the USDA’s role.”
The chapter says a proper mission would make the department's primary focus agriculture and would clarify that its client is the American people in general rather than a subset of interests such as farmers, meatpackers or environmental groups. It says the department should remove obstacles to food production rather than try to shape the economy.
What the document actually says“Congress must limit the USDA’s role.”
Congress must cut back what this department does.
This department handles farming and food. The book says it does far too much. It says Congress should narrow its job by law.
Read against the documents indexed here on August 26, 2026, and nothing was found that answers this. The nearest candidate revises the delegations of authority from the Secretary of Agriculture to the department's general officers, which moves work between offices inside the department. The proposal asks Congress to narrow what the department does, and no indexed law changes its statutory mission. Executive Order 14414, also among the candidates, directs more department activity in regenerative agriculture rather than less. That is a record of a search, not a finding that nothing has happened: an act this site does not hold, or one that answers the proposal in words unlike its own, would not be caught by it.
