Today, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) and the Public Lands Council (PLC) congratulated Brian Nesvik on being confirmed as the next Director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS).
“While the Trump administration is making huge progress reforming the Endangered Species Act and alleviating other regulatory burdens, ranchers need a permanent FWS Director, and this afternoon, the Senate confirmed a qualified, experienced leader. Nesvik has led western engagement on complex wildlife and natural resource issues, and we expect he will continue to be a decisive leader in Washington,” said NCBA Executive Director of Natural Resources and PLC Executive Director Kaitlynn Glover. “Nesvik is uniquely qualified for this role having previously served as the Director of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department and honed his leadership skills while serving in the National Guard with overseas deployments in Iraq and Kuwait. NCBA and PLC thank the Senate for diligently working to swiftly confirm nominees and reduce uncertainty for producers and livestock producers across the country congratulate Brian Nesvik on his confirmation to lead such an influential agency.”
