Forty-five percent of respondents said they disapproved of Trump’s performance in April, which is up from 37 percent who said they disapproved in February.”

“Colorado farmers and ranchers lost access to a critical lifeline when the U.S. Department of Agriculture last week froze funding for a program that supports the mental health of a population whose suicide rate is at least two times higher than the average population, and whose profession is marked by uncertainties in the weather, market and cost of operating.”

#USDA freezes #farmer #funding

The US Dept of #Agriculture has frozen some funding for farmers as it goes through a sweeping review, despite assurances from the #Trump admin that programs helping farmers would not be affected in the govt overhaul.

The impact has been immediate & wide-ranging, from cash assistance for #ranchers to fix #cattle watering systems to help for #corn growers wanting to plant cover crops that curb wind #erosion.
