Dan Newhouse (WA-04) released the following statement on the firing of Jon Wyss, State Executive Director, Washington State Farm Service Agency (FSA). "Jon Wyss has dedicated his career to helping farmers in Washington state, and he has been an asset in making sure we are a leader in the U.S. agriculture industry," said Rep. Newhouse. "His experience, relationships with producers, and firsthand understanding of the challenges in farm country give producers an ally in the federal government. Jon’s firing is a mistake and a disservice to farmers who need a strong leader at the Farm Service Agency, especially now, when times are tough. I have expressed my concerns with this decision to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the White House, because Jon was a true advocate for farmers in Washington state." Wyss was reappointed to serve as the State Executive Director of the FSA in May of 2025. He was first appointed in 2019 during the first Trump Administration and was re-appointed in 2022 during the Biden Administration. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:32:54Z |
