The National FFA Organization announced via social media Western Region Vice President Lyle Logemann has been removed from his National FFA Officer post. Logemann violated the code of conduct for national FFA officers by posting inappropriate diversity statements on social media prior to accepting his officer position. The FFA will continue to operate for the remainder of the officer year with five national officers. In a statement, the National FFA Organization said going forward, they will improve the vetting process for national FFA officer candidates, better train national officers and provide additional guidance to state associations to help present more qualified candidates for the offices they seek.
