Feenstra, who succeeded Steve King and previously served in the Iowa Senate from 2009 to 2021, continues to advocate for community banks and rural lenders while supporting tax cuts and agricultural investments.

On May 15, 2025, Feenstra reported meeting with the Community Bankers of Iowa. He expressed his commitment to supporting community banks and rural lenders by celebrating "the inclusion of important ag provisions from my #ACRE Act in our 'One, Big, Beautiful Bill'" and reiterated his "strong opposition to Section 1071."

Later that day, Feenstra tweeted about his role in advancing tax cuts and agricultural investments as part of President Trump's legislative package. He stated that he voted to advance these measures which aim to lower taxes for families, farmers, workers, and businesses while also supporting domestic manufacturing and Iowa agriculture.

In another tweet posted on the same day, Feenstra highlighted enhancements made by the Ways and Means Committee under President Trump's bill. He noted that "the standard deduction beyond levels from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017" has been increased, allowing families and workers to retain more income. This aligns with promises made by President Trump according to Feenstra's post here.

Randy Feenstra was born in Hull, Iowa in 1969 where he currently resides. He graduated from Dordt University in 1991 with a Bachelor of Arts degree.
