Rep. Randy Feenstra, representing Iowa's 4th district in the U.S. Congress, has shared several updates via social media regarding his political initiatives and positions. Feenstra, who succeeded Steve King in 2021, continues to be an active voice on issues ranging from immigration policy to trade and taxation.

On February 13, 2025, Rep. Feenstra expressed support for President Trump's immigration policies. He stated, "President Trump promised that he would detain and deport criminal illegal immigrants — and that’s exactly what he’s doing." Feenstra emphasized his commitment to collaborating with the President to enhance border security and community safety.

In a subsequent post on February 14, 2025, Rep. Feenstra addressed trade concerns related to Brazil's tariff on American ethanol. He criticized the tariff as unfair and harmful to American corn growers and ethanol producers: "Brazil’s unfair 18% tariff on American ethanol is a direct attack on our corn growers, ethanol producers, and rural communities." He thanked President Trump for advocating fair trade practices.

Later that day, Rep. Feenstra announced legislative efforts alongside Leader John Thune aimed at tax reform. On February 14, 2025, he tweeted about their joint initiative: "ICYMI: Yesterday, @LeaderJohnThune & I introduced our Death Tax Repeal Act to permanently eliminate the death tax on American family farms & businesses." He argued that this tax imposes an undue financial burden on families.
