USDA Field Office Stability Act

This bill would bar the Secretary of Agriculture from closing or moving county or field offices of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Farm Service Agency, Rural Development areas, and USDA county service centers. The ban would not apply to an office within 20 miles of another such office in the same state. It would also not apply to moving an office within the same county as part of routine leasing. The bill would require the Secretary to keep enough staff at these local service centers to keep them open to the public during standard business hours.
