Randy Feenstra, currently serving as a U.S. Congressman for Iowa's 4th district since 2021, has been vocal on various issues through his social media platform. On June 4, 2025, he addressed several topics ranging from border security to Medicaid and international trade.

In a tweet posted on June 4, Feenstra expressed support for President Trump's legislative initiative titled “One, Big, Beautiful Bill.” He stated that the bill aims to fund the construction of the border wall. According to Feenstra, "That’s real border security that liberals can’t tear down."

Later that day, Feenstra highlighted another aspect of President Trump’s bill in a separate post. He claimed that the legislation would remove 1.4 million illegal immigrants from Medicaid rolls. His message emphasized a commitment to protecting Medicaid for vulnerable Americans rather than those here illegally: "We will PROTECT Medicaid for the most vulnerable Americans — not illegals."

Additionally, Feenstra discussed efforts related to international trade with India. In collaboration with colleague Rep. Adrian Smith from the Ways and Means Committee, they penned a letter urging U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer to secure greater market access for American agricultural exports such as ethanol and soybean meal in India: "Last week, my @WaysandMeansGOP colleague @RepAdrianSmith and I led a letter to U.S. Trade Rep. Jamieson Greer urging greater market access for U.S. ag exports – specifically ethanol, distillers’ dried grains with solubles and soybean meal – in India."

Randy Feenstra was born in Hull, Iowa in 1969 and continues to reside there at age 54. A graduate of Dordt University with a BA obtained in 1991, he succeeded Steve King in Congress after serving in the Iowa Senate from 2009 until his congressional election.
