WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) issued the below statement following President Donald Trump’s appointment of Kristian “Kris” Warner to serve as West Virginia state director for the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Office of Rural Development.
 
“As an entrepreneur, small business owner and community leader, Kris has played an important role in West Virginia’s economic growth and development. He has worked successfully with other public- and private-sector leaders to improve our communities and build stronger, more diverse local economies. I think Kris is an excellent choice to lead USDA’s rural development efforts in our state, and I know he will continue to deliver for West Virginians.”
