Brian Ross Dansel (born April 2, 1983) is an American politician, political advisor, and current head of Washington state's Farm Service Agency. Before that he served as a Special Assistant to the United States Secretary of Agriculture in the administration of Donald Trump. He was previously a Republican member of the Washington State Senate from the 7th Legislative District.[1] Dansel won the seat in the 2013 election, in which he defeated appointed senator John Smith, and was sworn in on December 6, 2013.[2]

In a letter to the Washington State Office of Governor dated January 24, 2017, Dansel resigned as senator for the seventh district and vacated his seat after accepting a position with the Trump Administration as a Special Assistant to the Secretary of Agriculture.[3] In early November, he returned to Washington state to be the director of the state's USDA Farm Service Agency.[4]
