White House Names Blazek as Ag Adviser
The Biden White House has hired Wisconsin native Kelliann Blazek as a special assistant to the president for agriculture and rural policy.
Blazek’s career has included a handful of stops around Washington farm policy circles as well as work in her home state and as a food law and policy educator. Her most recent role was in Wisconsin’s Office of Rural Prosperity, where she worked under Democratic Gov. Tony Evers.
According to the White House, Blazek has also worked on Capitol Hill for Rep. Chellie Pingree, D-Maine, as well as for the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition, the Harvard Food Law and Policy Clinic, and the Antonin Scalia Law School.
Ferd Hoefner, Blazek’s former NSAC colleague, described her as “a really bright woman with strong legal skills and a lot of legislative experience.”
