There is one question I get asked every day that I was not expecting.
Every single day I get asked multiple times how old I am.
More than my background, more than my party affiliation, and more than my policy positions.

Thanks @VeronicaVermeul for the quote 😃❤️

I've had a lot of people ask me how #cdnag will be impacted by what's happening to Ukraine. It's a tough question to answer. Personally, I am looking forward to this panel. And I'd encourage anyone else interested in this topic to attend/participate.
Join CAPI on Wednesday March 9th at 11am ET for a webinar to discuss the impacts of the Russian invasion of #Ukraine on #agriculture and #foodsecurity
