EWG Statements on Johanns Resignation and Acting Secretary Conner

"Secretary Johanns has been a champion of important reforms in farm policy. We will miss the courage and tenacity with which he challenged the status quo in farm subsidies. Our hope is that the Bush administration will continue to press for changes like stricter payment limits and more support for conservation programs. We wish Secretary Johanns the best of luck."

"Chuck Conner is one of the best minds and practitioners in agriculture policy."
