Randy Feenstra, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Iowa's 4th district, has been actively engaging with his constituents and sharing his views on various issues through social media. In a series of tweets posted on March 20, 2025, Feenstra addressed topics ranging from public health to international relations and local economic relief.

In one tweet, Feenstra expressed support for efforts to combat bird flu by commending Secretary Rollins for her leadership in research and development into potential vaccines. He noted his own involvement in advocating for such measures: "I applaud @SecRollins for her leadership supporting R&D into potential vaccines and other solutions to mitigate and combat bird flu. In February, I led a letter to USDA calling for this type of aggressive, yet voluntary, vaccination strategy to avoid major spikes in egg prices."

Feenstra also commented on international affairs by condemning an attack on Israel: "Hamas launched rockets at Israel today. These vicious Hamas terrorists must be defeated. The United States stands with Israel." This statement reflects his stance on foreign policy and support for Israel amidst ongoing conflicts.

Additionally, Feenstra provided information regarding economic relief available to farmers in Iowa's 4th district. He encouraged those eligible to apply before the deadline: "ICYMI: Until August 15, #IA04 farmers can apply for economic relief at their local FSA office or online... I encourage anyone who needs help with this process to contact my office..." This initiative is part of his efforts to assist local farmers facing financial challenges.
