USDA, EPA Teams Include Key Figures from Obama Administration

President-elect Joe Biden has announced a number of presidential transition teams including those for USDA, EPA and the United States Trade Representative, led by a number of former Obama administration officials.
 
President Donald Trump continues to dispute the election with litigation in close states. His administration also is blocking Biden's staff from access to government resources.
 
Biden's USDA team is led by Robert Bonnie, the current farm and forest initiative director at the Bipartisan Policy Center's energy project, according to Biden's transition website.
 
Bonnie served as undersecretary for natural resources and environment at USDA from 2013 to 2017 and worked as a senior advisor to then U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack from 2009 to 2013.
