Randy Feenstra, a U.S. Congressman representing Iowa's 4th district, has been actively engaging with his constituents and legislative duties as reflected in his recent social media activity. Feenstra, who took office in 2021 after serving in the Iowa Senate, is vocal about energy independence, border security, and accountability for illegal activities.

On February 6, 2025, Feenstra shared his meeting with members of Growth Energy to discuss biofuels' role in energy security. He emphasized his commitment to advocating for year-round E15 fuel availability and a comprehensive five-year Farm Bill to benefit farmers and rural communities. "I enjoyed meeting with members from @GrowthEnergy to talk about the importance of homegrown #IA04 biofuels to our energy security and independence."

Later that day, he announced his support for the HALT Fentanyl Act, passed by House Republicans. This legislation aims to address drug trafficking issues at the border under President Trump's leadership. Feenstra reiterated support for border patrol agents and measures against drug cartels. "I just voted for, and @HouseGOP passed, the HALT Fentanyl Act to hold dangerous drug traffickers accountable for their crimes."

On February 7, 2025, Feenstra highlighted feedback from Iowans regarding prosecuting illegal immigrants involved in violent crimes against Americans. Citing overwhelming support from respondents, he mentioned introducing Sarah’s Law during President Trump’s administration to ensure accountability among illegal immigrants. "In my weekly newsletter from 2 weeks ago, I asked if Iowans supported prosecuting illegal immigrants who murder Americans."
