Peoria's USDA lab is on the list of cuts in President Trump's budget. The lab is one of 17 USDA sites that would close as part of the budget released yesterday. Western Illinois Congresswoman Cheri Bustos, whose district includes the lab, says the budget and its proposed cuts are "incredibly troubling and misguided." The president's budget would cut about 20-percent of the budget from the nation's ag agency.
