Rep. Randy Feenstra, a U.S. Congressman representing Iowa's 4th District since 2021, shared several updates on his activities and legislative initiatives through social media posts on November 19, 2024.

In one of his tweets, Feenstra highlighted a meeting with representatives from Iowa Fuel in his office to discuss the significance of biofuels produced in Iowa for national energy security. He stated, "Today, I had a large group with @iowafuel in my office to discuss the importance of homegrown #IA04 biofuels to our national and energy security. With the help of American biofuels, we can lower gas prices for our families and reduce our reliance on foreign oil and gas!" This tweet was posted at 21:01 UTC.

Later that day at 22:10 UTC, Feenstra shared insights from his biannual tour across Iowa's 4th District. He expressed satisfaction in converting conversations with constituents into legislative actions by saying, "Traveling across #IA04 on my biannual #36CountyTour, I’ve had the chance to meet with Iowans and take their ideas to Congress. I’m glad to say that we’ve transformed real conversations with real people into meaningful legislation the last four years."

At 23:10 UTC, Feenstra addressed fiscal policy by introducing a legislative measure aimed at repealing what he terms an unfair tax burden on family-owned enterprises. He tweeted about this initiative as follows: "The death tax is an unfair double tax on our family farms and small businesses. That's why I introduced the Death Tax Repeal Act to #AxeTheDeathTax permanently and deliver relief for our families, farmers, and businesses on Main Street."
