Vaden to serve as general counsel of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Stephen Vaden's experience in law and understanding of the needs of farmers will be an important asset as USDA and Congress work to help rural America prosper and grow, said Corker. Under Stephen's tenure as acting general counsel since March of last year, the Office of General Counsel has promoted department accountability and improved its responsiveness to civil rights issues, and it is my belief that Stephen will continue to do so. I am pleased to see the Senate act on Stephen's nomination and thank my colleagues for supporting his confirmation. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
