US Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue appeared to flagrantly violate the ethics law prohibiting government officials from making political statements during officials events when he advocated for "four more years" for President Donald Trump at an official function in Mills River, N.C., on Monday."Mr President, as you saw those throngs of people lining both sides of the road from the airport all the way to Mills River here, those were those forgotten people that voted for you for 2016. And I've got better news for you: They and many others are gonna vote for you for four more years in 2020," Mr Perdue said at an event touting the US Department of Agriculture's (USDA) "Farmers to Families Food Box Program" that is sending excess produce to families in need during the coronavirus.
