Biden, Vilsack Going To Wisconsin Next Week

President Joe Biden and USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack will be in Wisconsin on Tuesday June 29 to discuss agriculture and rural economies, according to the White House.

Dairy is likely to figure high on the list of issues that will be focused on with the administration having announced additional aid will be coming to the sector over the next 60 days.

But there has been little detail on the aid plans as of yet. However, the expectation is that as Biden and Vilsack visit the nation's key dairy state, there will be some kind of policy announcement forthcoming as Wisconsin is viewed as a potential battleground state in the 2022 midterm elections.
