Story number nine of 2009 is the official word that Oklahoma Congressman Frank Lucas becomes the ranking minority member of the House Ag Committee. Lucas, a farmer/rancher from Roger Mills County, takes the position vacated by Congressman Bob Goodlatte of Virginia, who was term limited out of the leadership position.
