One of my all time favorite U.S. Secretaries of Agriculture is John Block. Here he is speaking on a panel at last fall’s NAFB convention. John is currently Senior Policy Advisor in the law firm of Olsson Frank Weeda Terman Matz PC and serves on numerous boards. He also produces a long running commentary, John Block Reports from Washington. His most recent episode touches on immigration reform, spending and budgets and Syria. You can listen to it here: John Block Reports

John encourage everyone to access his website which archives his radio commentaries dating back 10 years and will go back 20 years when complete. Check on what he said back then.
