"Day in day out, OIG staff are truly the unsung heroes in the battle against waste, fraud, and abuse. Your work through audits, investigations, and reviews helps protect the taxpayers’ interests while improving the Department’s effectiveness and efficiency."
The House today passed, on a 219 to 208 vote, a package of seven 2022 appropriations bills.
"The bill addresses three key priorities: First, ensuring equitable participation in USDA programs. Second, addressing the impacts of climate change. Third, reinvesting in staff and leadership offices at USDA."
"The bill addresses three key priorities. First, it provides nearly $400 million in investments to ensure equitable participation in USDA programs. Second, the bill provides nearly $350 million to address the impacts of climate change. And third, it fully funds federal pay costs and it rebuilds the leadership offices at USDA that were decimated over the past several years."
