Bakers congratulate Tom Vilsack on confirmation as USDA secretary of agriculture
The American Bakers Association (ABA)’s President and CEO Robb MacKie issued the following statement regarding the confirmation and swearing-in of Tom Vilsack as USDA secretary of agriculture:
“As we have in the past, the baking industry looks forward to working closely with Secretary Vilsack. As we enter a new phase of the ongoing pandemic, it is critical for the agencies that support America’s food supply chain to transition smoothly. Our members continue feeding the country a safe, steady supply of baked goods. Therefore, the USDA must transition smoothly to maintain continuity in America’s food supply chain.
