Randy Feenstra, currently serving as a U.S. Congressman for Iowa's 4th District, has addressed several key issues via social media, reflecting on national concerns and local community interests. In three recent posts, Feenstra acknowledges military sacrifices, emphasizes economic strategies for local farmers, and promotes educational opportunities for young constituents.

On April 5, 2025, Feenstra paid tribute to the sacrifices made by military families in a post recognizing Gold Star spouses. He stated, "Today, we recognize our nation’s Gold Star spouses and honor the memory of their fallen loved ones and these incredible American heroes. Our military families make unthinkable sacrifices on behalf of our country. We will never forget their commitment to the Stars and Stripes."

On April 7, 2025, Feenstra turned to economic issues impacting local farmers in Iowa. He expressed the importance of opening new export markets, stating, "Opening new export markets for #IA04 farmers increases demand for our agricultural commodities & puts more money into the pockets of our producers. With the farm economy softening, we must pass policies that expand financial opportunities for agriculture."

Feenstra also focused on educational opportunities in a post from April 7, 2025, where he invited students interested in military academies to attend an event in Fort Dodge. He mentioned, "On Wednesday April 23, I encourage students from 8th - 12th grade interested in attending one of our nation’s military academies to stop by our 4th District Military Academy Day in Fort Dodge. This will be a helpful forum for young Iowans to get their questions answered!"
