"I was glad to meet today with President-elect Trump’s nominee to serve as Secretary of Agriculture, Brooke Rollins," said McConnell. He acknowledged the challenges faced by American farmers and emphasized the importance of providing stability and support through a united Republican government.

McConnell, who holds a senior position on the Senate Agriculture Committee, conveyed his eagerness to collaborate closely with Rollins in her new role. "As a senior member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, I look forward to working closely with her very soon," he stated.
