Luncheon planned for horse show organizers
Luncheon planned for horse show organizers Monday, December 23, 2024
The Tennessee Walking Horse Breeders’ & Exhibitors’ Association (TWHBEA) and the Walking Horse Trainers’ Association (WHTA) are hosting a luncheon for all show managers on February 15, 2025. The luncheon will be held in conjunction with the WHTA Annual Meeting & Awards Banquet, held at the Embassy Suites in Franklin, Tennessee. All show managers who host events that include Tennessee Walking Horses are invited to attend the luncheon.
The USDA finalized a rule earlier this year that would make sweeping changes to the Tennessee Walking Horse industry and all equine competitions. The rule is set to take effect in February 2025, but the industry is challenging it in Federal court. We expect to have some answers on the lawsuit and more direction for show managers who are planning events in 2025 before the luncheon on February 15. TWHBEA and WHTA are committed to working with the current HIOs and horse shows to support them in every way necessary to ensure minimal disruption to their events in the coming year. The success of our industry is dependent on the success of our competitions.
Show organizers can make reservations for the luncheon by calling TWHBEA at 931-359-1574 or by clicking here: https://forms.gle/K1hkmHRm14dhtLv9A
HSUS sickos churn $$$…watch video…see the scam
APHIS chart show events to be inspected by USDA
Horse Protection Act
In May 2024, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) published new Horse Protection Act (HPA) rules, which will be implemented and enforced in February 2025. The new rules have expanded the scope of the HPA far beyond its original intent when it was voted into law in 1970.
In plain words, the new language amounts to an egregious overreach. The new language impacts the personal privacy of US Citizens involved in the horse industry, every breed of horse, and every sector, from youth events like 4H and FFA competitions to small community horse shows, rodeos, barrel races, and large association events that occur annually on the national level.
Trump Continues to Build USDA Team, Names Stephen Vaden as Deputy Secretary
Trump Continues to Build USDA Team, Names Stephen Vaden as Deputy Secretary
As the Trump administration prepares to return to the White House, these appointments signal a continuation of its previous agricultural policies and priorities, with experienced individuals who have both legal expertise and connections to the farming community.
President-elect Donald Trump announced the appointment of Stephen Vaden as deputy secretary of USDA for his upcoming administration. Vaden, who served as general counsel for USDA during Trump’s first term, brings extensive legal expertise and a personal connection to farming.
“In my First Term, Stephen was the General Counsel of the Department of Agriculture, and a Member of the Board of the Commodity Credit Corporation, where he won two cases before the United States Supreme Court, relocated and reorganized the Agencies that comprise the Department to better serve Rural America, and engaged in substantial regulatory reform. Stephen joined the USDA on Day One of my First Term, and left in December 2020 after I nominated him, and the U.S. Senate confirmed him, to continue to serve the American People as an Article III Judge on the Court of International Trade. Judge Stephen Vaden resides in Union City, Tennessee, where he helps manage his family farm. Congratulations Stephen!”
Vaden’s Background
Vaden’s accomplishments include winning Supreme Court cases, leading USDA reforms, and implementing key policies such as the 2018 Farm Bill and hemp legalization. His appointment comes alongside Brooke Rollins as USDA secretary.
Vaden holds a law degree from Yale University and a bachelor’s degree from Vanderbilt University. Prior to his government service, Vaden worked at prominent Washington law firms, including Jones Day and Patton Boggs.
He currently serves as a judge on the United States Court of International Trade, a position he has held since December 2020.
During his tenure as USDA’s general counsel, Vaden achieved several notable successes:
Won two cases before the United States Supreme Court;
Oversaw the relocation and reorganization of USDA agencies to better serve rural America;
Engaged in substantial regulatory reform;
Implemented the 2018 Farm Bill;
Managed rules for the legalization of industrial hemp and regulation of bioengineered crops.
Vaden maintains strong ties to agriculture, living in Union City, Tennessee, where he helps manage his family farm. This personal connection to farming likely provides him with valuable insights into the challenges and needs of rural America.
New Leadership Team at USDA Secretary
Rollins, who previously served as a White House adviser and currently leads the America First Policy Institute, brings her own set of qualifications to USDA secretary role, including a law degree and a background in agricultural development from Texas A&M University.
This leadership team at USDA will be responsible for overseeing a wide range of policies, regulations, and aid programs related to farming, forestry, ranching, food quality, and nutrition. Their appointments are subject to Senate confirmation, which will be controlled by Republicans. Trump takes office on Jan. 20, 2025.
Bottom line:
As the Trump administration prepares to return to the White House, these appointments signal a continuation of its previous agricultural policies and priorities, with experienced individuals who have both legal expertise and connections to the farming community.
