More From Tom Vilsack
- "Food during my early years was a very difficult issue for me. I grew up in an addictive family. My mother had serious problems with alcohol and prescription drugs. I was an overweight kid. I can remember back in those days there weren’t the strategies that there are today to deal with those issues."
- "You know, rural Americans are a special people. Their labor puts food on our table and fuel in our gas tanks. Their service in our military sets a powerful example of leadership, honor and sacrifice. Their spirit of community inspires us all."
- "At President Obama’s direction, the U.S Department of Agriculture is working hard to unleash the power of America’s innovators and entrepreneurs to build a green energy economy."
