Minnesota Farmers Union President Gary Wertish believes the selection of Governor Tim Walz for the Democratic vice presidential role is good for the state and for agriculture. “When’s the last time we had someone on a national ticket that served on the House Agriculture Committee and Governor Walz has done that,” said Wertish. “As governor, he’s done a good job. He’s been thrown a few curveballs with COVID and the unrest. He’s seen challenging times, but overall has done well.”
