MADISON – Rachel Mixon of Hartford has been endorsed by the Volunteers for Agriculture® Committee for the 59th State Assembly District. The VFA is the political action arm of the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation.
“Rachel was incredibly engaging with our interview committee and has a breadth of knowledge on the issues impacting the 59th Assembly District that makes her a strong candidate,” said Rob Richard, WFBF’s Senior Director of Governmental Relations. “Our committee of local Farm Bureau members endorsed Rachel because she is driven to learn, passionate about solving tough issues and has the personality that will make her an effective legislator on rural issues at the Capitol.”
