U.S. Rep. Jim McGovern on appointment of Niedzielski to Farm Services Agency

Congressman Jim McGovern released the following statement today on the appointment of Jon Niedzielski of Amherst as Massachusetts State Director for the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Services Agency:

-Jon is an exceptional choice to serve in this key role. As a member of the House Agriculture Committee, I know how important it is to have strong, effective leadership at the FSA that understands the needs of farmers and their communities.

-I recently inherited a good deal of former Congressman John Olver's district in redistricting, and I see on a daily basis Jon's fingerprints on so many successful projects and partnerships across Western Massachusetts. Jon is a skilled leader and insightful public servant, well-respected around the Commonwealth, and I believe that he is uniquely qualified for this position.-
