USDA Deputy Secretary Jewel Bronaugh has announced she is stepping down from her role at USDA.
In a statement on Thursday, Bronaugh says she wants to spend more time with her family.
She says serving US farmers and ranchers has been the greatest honor of her professional career helping make historic investments in equity, boosting food assistance, creating new trade markets and providing support for underserved producers after being confirmed by the Senate in May of 2021.
