Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) welcomed today’s Senate confirmation of Glen R. Smith of Atlantic, Iowa, to serve as Under Secretary for Rural Development at the Department of Agriculture (USDA). Smith served as Chair of the Farm Credit Administration (FCA) during the first Trump administration. “Glen Smith is a product of rural Iowa who’s spent his career serving fellow farmers. Having grown up in southwest Iowa, he understands our way of life and what it takes for family farmers to feed and fuel the world. I congratulate Under Secretary Smith on his confirmation, and I look forward to working with him to deliver for the hardworking men and women who keep food on our tables,” Grassley said. | 1 | 2026-08-08T05:41:38Z | 2026-08-08T05:43:24Z |
