The Time is NOW: Tell President-Elect Obama to Appoint a Secretary of Agriculture with Organic Values
The time is now! President-Elect Obama is extremely close to naming a new Secretary of Agriculture. The Secretary of Agriculture is responsible for directing the U.S. Department of Agriculture and its $90 billion annual budget, including the National Organic Program, food stamp and nutrition programs, and agriculture subsidies. Through the Organic Consumers Association web portal, you can now directly communicate with the President-Elect about your choice for Secretary of Agriculture and your vision for our nation's food system.
Act today! For greater impact, please considering customizing your message to the President-Elect. The OCA has provided a sample letter for your convenience.
