What happened

Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins testified at a House oversight hearing of the U.S. Department of Agriculture amid the screwworm outbreak, carried live by PBS NewsHour on June 10, 2026. The hearing is the House’s oversight examination of the department during the New World Screwworm outbreak — the same response effort Secretary Rollins briefed at her June 8, 2026 press conference in Texas, paged separately on this site.

Why it matters

Oversight testimony under questioning is where the department’s screwworm response — its timeline, its resources, and its claims — is tested on the record by the committee charged with watching USDA, six days after the Secretary’s full-committee testimony and two days after her Texas field briefing.

Scoreboard watch

The Secretary’s testimony is recorded here as she stated it, to be checked against the department’s published screwworm response record.
