President-elect Joe Biden on Friday formally introduced Tom Vilsack as his Ag Secretary nominee.
Biden referred to Vilsack, who led the USDA for eight years under the Obama Administration, as “the best secretary of agriculture I believe our country has ever had”. And Biden said Vilsack’s experience is sorely needed to address the major challenges facing farmers, rural America and the entire country.
“One in six Americans and a quarter of the children in America are facing hunger,” Biden said.
