Keeping interest rates steady as they are now is long term strategic.
The current administration can restructure subsidies already passed by congress. The executive branch has a lot of leeway in how they can qualify spending for example, or what those subsidies can be tied to. There’s billions of dollars in subsidies that can short term be prioritized better by the respective departments without a signal vote in congress needed. For example, they could change how the USDA pays out farming subsidies to prioritize small family farmers. Another thing they could do is tie public school food subsidies to having schools be supplied, whenever possible, by local family farms instead of major conglomerates[0]
