The Biden administration has announced its pick to fill a key trade role at the USDA.  The White House announced Alexis Taylor as their nomination for Undersecretary for Trade and Foreign Agricultural Affairs.  Ag groups welcomed Friday’s announcement and have pressed the administration to fill the role, which has been vacant since President Biden took office.

Ag Secretary Tom Vilsack says Taylor is a collaborative leader with a track record of working toward large-scale solutions in partnership with the communities she serves.
