112TH CONGRESS 

2D SESSION S. RES. 458 

Commemorating May 15, 2012, as the sesquicentennial of the founding of 

the Department of Agriculture. 

IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES 

MAY 10, 2012 

Mr. JOHANNS (for himself, Ms. STABENOW, and Mr. ROBERTS) submitted the 

following resolution; which was considered and agreed to 

RESOLUTION 

Commemorating May 15, 2012, as the sesquicentennial of 

the founding of the Department of Agriculture. 

Whereas, on May 15, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln 

signed into law an Act that established a Department of 

Agriculture (12 Stat. 387, chapter 72); 

Whereas President Lincoln gave the Department of Agriculture general authority to acquire and spread useful information on agricultural subjects and to assist in the development and use of new and valuable seeds and plants; 

Whereas, in 1862, President Lincoln also signed into law the 

Act entitled ‘‘An Act to secure homesteads to actual settlers on the public domain’’ (commonly known as the 

‘‘Homestead Act of 1862’’; 12 Stat. 392, chapter 75) and 

the Act of July 2, 1862 (commonly known as the ‘‘First 

Morrill Act’’; 12 Stat. 503, chapter 130), which, along 


jbell on DSK7SPTVN1PROD with BILLS

•SRES 458 ATS 

with the creation of the Department of Agriculture, lay 

the foundation for Federal agricultural policy; 

Whereas, in the 1850s, there was 1 farmer for every 2 people 

in the United States, while today the average farmer in 

the United States feeds more than 150 people; 

Whereas the United States is now the second largest producer and the largest exporter of agricultural products in 

the world; 

Whereas the role of the Department of Agriculture has expanded to include functions impacting nearly every aspect 

of the rural United States and beyond; 

Whereas the Department of Agriculture helps to ensure the 

safety of the food supply of the United States, provides 

conservation assistance, collects market data, provides 

nutrition assistance, protects the health of plants and 

animals, supports rural communities, conducts agricultural research, maintains risk management tools for producers, and promotes agricultural exports; and 

Whereas the professionalism, dedication, and work ethic of 

the public servants at the Department of Agriculture provide a shining example of why President Lincoln called 

the Department of Agriculture the ‘‘People’s Department’’: Now, therefore, be it 

1 Resolved, That the Senate— 

2 (1) congratulates the men and women of the 

3 Department of Agriculture on the occasion of the 

4 150th anniversary of the Department; 

5 (2) celebrates the growth and success of agri6 culture in the United States; and

1 (3) honors the farmers and ranchers of the 

2 United States, whose ingenuity, adaptability, and 

3 skill have created the safest and most abundant food 

4 supply in the history of mankind.

MEMORANDUM ORDER ADOPTING THE REPORT AND

RECOMMENDATION OF THE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE [Dkt. 26]

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636 and the Local Rules of Court for the Assignment of Duties 

to United States Magistrate Judges, the District Court referred this proceeding to the Honorable 

Christine L. Stetson to conduct all pretrial proceedings, to enter findings of fact and recommend

disposition on case-dispositive matters, and to determine non-dispositive matters. See 28 U.S.C. 

§ 636(b)(1); E.D. TEX. LOC. R. CV-72.

Plaintiffs, proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, filed suit on January 19, 2024, 

alleging Defendants violated their constitutional rights under the Takings Clause, along with state 

law claims [Dkt. 1]. On April 15, 2024, Judge Stetson entered a Report and Recommendation 

[Dkt. 26] advising the Court to sua sponte dismiss Plaintiffs’ claims without prejudice for lack 

of subject matter jurisdiction. Judge Stetson found that Plaintiffs had no ripe takings claim and 

there was, accordingly, no basis for this Court’s subject matter jurisdiction. No party objected

to Judge Stetson’s Report and Recommendation and the time to do so has passed. After careful 

review, the Court finds that the findings of fact and conclusions of law of the United States 

Magistrate Judge are correct.

Accordingly, the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge 

[Dkt. 26] is ADOPTED. Plaintiffs’ claims are DISMISSED without prejudice for lack of subject 

matter jurisdiction. A final judgment will be entered by the Court.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
