Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins told reporters Tuesday morning that egg prices have dropped by nearly $2 since the Trump administration initiated its biosafety strategy for combating H5N1 bird flu, which has decimated the poultry industry in recent months.
Late last month, Rollins announced that the Department of Agriculture would spend $1 billion to lower egg prices and curb the spread of the highly pathogenic avian influenza.
