USDA's FNS reorganization page says USDA notified Congress on April 30, 2026, started the required 30-day notice period, and plans restructuring after that period and bargaining requirements.

The agency's latest official page indicates the relocation/reorganization remained active as of the lookback window, so reversal had not been delivered.

Federal News Network reported that more than 80% of surveyed USDA food-assistance employees said they would not relocate, while USDA's relocation plan remained in motion.

Congress.gov lists Vindman as an original cosponsor of H.R.2470, which would require benefit-cost analysis before covered federal employment relocations; the bill remains introduced and referred.

Vindman took concrete legislative action against federal relocation plans, but the bill had not advanced to enactment and did not reverse USDA's move.

USDA announced that SNAP would move to Indianapolis, child nutrition to Dallas, supplemental nutrition and safety programs to Kansas City, and research programs to Raleigh.
