And since you mentioned Obama https://www.blackfarmers.org/blog/president-obamas-important-role-in-achieving-justice-for-black-farmers

"I approached Senator Obama and said to him, “I need your help with the black farmers bill.” He took an interest in the situation, and wanted to hear from me about the discrimination that black farmers faced. He genuinely cared about what I had to say.

After our conversation, Senator Obama became one of the leaders on this issue, sponsoring the Pigford Claims Remedy Act in 2007. Eventually, Congress passed $100 million in funding for payments to late filers and called for a new cause of action for tens of thousands of black farmers who never had their cases heard. But even after the bill was passed, we continued to face an uphill battle to obtain enough funding for the thousands of black farmers who had suffered because of discrimination.

As President, Barack Obama continued to fight for black farmers, and on December 8th, 2010, he signed legislation that would give $1.25 billion in compensation to black farmers. I had the privilege of representing the nation’s African-American farmers in the room the day he signed the bill. And when the President embraced me, I felt like he was embracing all those who were affected by the unjust policies of the USDA."

Feel free to show me any progress on this issue by Republicans.
