Randy Feenstra, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Iowa's 4th district, has recently made several legislative moves aimed at protecting American interests and providing tax relief. Feenstra, who replaced Steve King in 2021, has been actively involved in issues concerning agriculture and taxation.

On March 8, 2025, Feenstra announced the introduction of the FARMLAND Act designed to safeguard U.S. agricultural lands from foreign acquisition. "ICYMI: Yesterday, I introduced the FARMLAND Act to protect our farms and ag production from China & our foreign enemies." He emphasized the importance of ensuring that American farmland remains under domestic control for future generations.

Later on March 8, Feenstra expressed gratitude towards his colleagues from Michigan for supporting his Death Tax Repeal Act. "I thank my friends and colleagues from Michigan — General @RepJackBergman, @RepTomBarrett, @RepMoolenaar, and @RepWalberg — for cosponsoring my Death Tax Repeal Act." The act aims to eliminate what he refers to as an unfair tax burden on farmers and small business owners in states like Michigan and Iowa.

On March 10, Feenstra highlighted the inclusion of Sarah’s Law in the Laken Riley Act. This legislation was signed into law by former President Trump. "After years of advocacy, @SenJoniErnst and I were able to have Sarah’s Law — named in honor of Sarah Root — included in the Laken Riley Act." The law mandates accountability for illegal immigrants involved in criminal activities.
