Mike Oldham of Smithville [right] and Steve Maikell of Sweetwater [left] present U.S. Congressman Lloyd Doggett with the 2010 Legislative “White Hat” Award on behalf of the Texas Farmers Union for Rep. Doggett’s outstanding voting record on behalf of Texas farmers, ranchers, and rural communities. “Congressman Doggett has won this honor consistently through the years for his work on behalf of our families,” said Oldham.   “From plow to plate, it’s critical that we preserve our way of life in rural communities.  From pressing Agriculture Secretary Vilsack last year for timely drought relief  to supporting a strong Farm Bill, I will keep listening to and advancing their priorities,” said Rep. Doggett.
