Consumer activist may join Ag Department post
Washington AP reports consumer activist Carol Foreman, executive director of the Consumer Federation of America, is being considered for an assistant secretary role in the Agriculture Department. Her potential appointment alarmed some officials wary of tighter consumer oversight, while others saw it as a chance to improve the department’s image. Foreman and her group have long criticized Butz’s policies and high food prices, and reaction to President-elect Carter’s selection of Bob Bergland as secretary has been mixed among consumer advocates.
