Bradley M. Pfaff (born December 7, 1967) is an American agriculture policy administrator and Democratic politician from La Crosse County, Wisconsin. He is a member of the Wisconsin Senate, representing Wisconsin's 32nd Senate district since 2021. He was an unsuccessful candidate for United States House of Representatives in 2022.
He previously served as secretary-designee of the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection in 2019, during the first term of Governor Tony Evers, but his appointment was rejected by the Republican state Senate ten months into his term.[1] Pfaff subsequently worked as director of business and rural development for the Wisconsin Department of Administration.
Earlier in his career, Pfaff served as a federal appointee in the Obama administration, working as the Wisconsin state executive director of the Farm Service Agency and deputy administrator for farm programs at the United States Department of Agriculture.[2]
