The House Democratic Caucus has elected Minnesota Congresswoman Angie Craig to serve as the ranking member of the agriculture committee. Craig easily defeated California Congressman Jim Costa and Georgia Congressman David Scott for the leadership role. Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar will be the ranking member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, succeeding Michigan Senator Debbie Stabenow who did not seek reelection. It is extremely rare to have one state represented in two of the four ag committee leadership positions in Congress.
