On Tuesday, July 28, at 3 p.m. ET, a virtual town hall will discuss the challenges and opportunities facing rural America in a crisis economy. Former U.S. Department of Agriculture secretaries Ann Veneman (a Republican) and Tom Vilsack (a Democrat) will discuss the issue using examples from 9/11 and the Great Recession during "Rural America: Leadership in a Crisis Economy." The event will be moderated by Kirk Siegler, a National Public Radio reporter who covers rural issues.
The town hall will be presented by the National Association of Counties, the National Cooperative Business Association, and the Rural Community Assistance Partnership. NACo aims to connect and serve county governments. The NCBA is a membership organization for cooperatives. The RCAP is a national network of non-profit organizations that provide technical assistance and resources to rural communities. All three lobby lawmakers at the federal level.
