AFT Congratulates Vilsack on Agriculture Secretary Nomination
WASHINGTON, D.C. – American Farmland Trust congratulates Tom Vilsack on being nominated as Secretary of Agriculture by President-elect Joe Biden. At a time when farmers are struggling in the face of a global pandemic, his experience will help USDA tackle these challenges on day one of the new administration. We especially look forward to working with him to advance farmland protection, provide farmers the tools to address climate change, create a more inclusive agricultural system, and widen the doors of participation to a new, diverse generation of producers.
