Our
very own Rep. Brian Blake!
The
Washington Farm Bureau has been awarding
this honor to one or more legislators every year since 1995. Their criteria
are based on the lawmaker’s voting record and outstanding actions to help
strengthen family farms.
This
session Blake, chair of the House
Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee, was chosen by the Bureau for
championing funding of the Department of Agriculture and the Conservation
Commissions-services critical to the continued success of Washington’s
agricultural businesses.
