Republican agriculture officials fight to support farmers across the country

about Ag America

Ag America, one of the four caucuses of the Republican State Leadership Committee, is the only national organization in the United States committed to supporting and electing independently-elected agriculture officials in states across the country. Since 2019, Ag America has fought to protect the future of America’s agriculture industry through forward-thinking agricultural reforms that recognize the importance of our farmers to the U.S. economy. In addition, the advocacy of our Republican agriculture officials for free market policies helps strengthen both America’s farms and agribusiness as a whole. Republicans currently hold 12 out of 12 elected agriculture official offices.
