PRESIDENT BIDEN HAS TURNED HIS BACK ON AMERICAN FARMERS

President Biden has repeatedly turned his back on Rural America.

He vetoed a bipartisan resolution to overturn his destructive WOTUS regulations, his budget proposes $5 trillion in new tax hikes on our farmers, and he prioritizes foreign oil over homegrown Iowa biofuels.

Watch my full interview on Fox News below!

GOP reps shred President Biden for 'absolutely' turning...

Farmers are sounding the alarm over the Biden administration's green energy agenda and its threat to the agriculture industry. On Thursday, Rep. Randy Feenstra, R-Iowa, and Rep. Tracey Mann, R-Kan., slammed the president for ignoring rural...

CALIFORNIA'S PROP 12 HURTS IOWA PRODUCERS

I’m outraged that the Supreme Court upheld California’s assault on Iowa hog farmers and egg producers. Prop 12 represents red tape at its worst, raising costs for our producers and prices for our families while inflation wreaks havoc on our communities and destroys our economy. Quite frankly, California liberals have no jurisdiction over how Iowa farmers raise our hens and hogs.

On top of President Biden’s radical WOTUS rule and his tax hikes on our producers, this decision is just another attack on rural America. As the top pork-producing and egg-producing district in the nation, I will continue to work with my colleagues to repeal Prop 12 and support our producers.

Supreme Court upholds California animal welfare law in...

The Supreme Court rejected a challenge from the National Pork Producers Council against a California animal welfare law in a ruling released Thursday. The court ruled that the National Pork Producers were asking the court to "fashion two new and...

MY VISIT WITH NORPAC

This week, I had a productive conversation with NORPAC about the strong alliance between the United States and Israel.

The United States will ALWAYS stand with Israel.

STANDING UP FOR OUR SMALL BUSINESSES

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy and main streets. Unfortunately, they are struggling in the Biden economy.

That's why my Ways and Means colleagues and I are working to revive and preserve vital tax relief from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act for our small businesses and manufacturers.

You can read more in my Washington Times op-ed below.

Republicans will deliver tax relief for small businesses

Small businesses are struggling in the Biden economy. Inflation remains at record highs thanks to trillions in wasteful spending, labor shortages persist due to taxpayer-funded handouts that reward welfare over work, and burdensome compliance...

OUR WAYS AND MEANS FIELD HEARING IN STATEN ISLAND

I was in Staten Island, New York on Tuesday with my Ways and Means colleagues to discuss how we can revitalize our trade laws to benefit American families, workers, farmers, and small businesses.

As the second largest exporter of agricultural products in the nation, I’m passionate about opening new markets for Iowa.

ADVOCATING FOR AN "ALL-OF-THE-ABOVE" APPROACH TO AMERICAN ENERGY PRODUCTION

President Biden destroyed our energy independence on his first day in office, outsourcing our energy needs to our adversaries and halting construction on the Keystone XL pipeline.

We need an "all of the above" strategy to unleash American energy production and ease the pain of inflation for our families.

Feenstra Backs Resolution to Promote "All of the Above"...

Today, U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-Hull) cosponsored a resolution which expresses that an "all of the above" approach to energy production is the best and most viable route to address energy policy and restore America's energy independence....

GETTING OUR NATION'S FISCAL HOUSE IN ORDER

This is the reality of our debt crisis. We owe $7 trillion to foreign countries because we have failed to get our fiscal house in order.

That's why House Republicans passed our Limit, Save, Grow Act to slash $4.8 trillion in wasteful spending from the federal budget, reduce our nearly $32 trillion debt, and restore fiscal responsibility in Congress.

Debt debacle laid bare: U.S. owes whopping $7 trillion...

The good news during the latest government showdown is that most of the federal debt is owned by U.S. shareholders. The bad news is that still leaves roughly $7 trillion in federal debt abroad. That includes $1.1 trillion held in Japan and $860...

ONE MORE THING: WHERE SHOULD CONGRESSMAN FEENSTRA VISIT?

Congressman Feenstra visits every county in the 4th District at least twice each year. From town halls and farm visits, to manufacturing tours and school visits, Congressman Feenstra enjoys meeting with his constituents.

If you would like to suggest a visit idea for the Congressman, please reach out to his District Director at [email protected].

MY WEEKLY COLUMN: DELIVERING SOLUTIONS TO PRESIDENT BIDEN'S BORDER CRISIS

In our Commitment to America, House Republicans promised that we would counter President Biden’s border crisis with serious proposals to protect our families. I’m proud to say that we delivered on that promise by passing our Secure the Border Act, which is the strongest border security legislation in recent memory.

It keeps fentanyl out of our communities, maintains Title 42, fully funds our border patrol agents, holds drug traffickers accountable for their crimes, and finishes construction on the border wall. While President Biden’s open-border policies project weakness, Republicans will continue to offer solutions that project strength and finally secure the border.
