Washington, DC — This area’s Congressman, Randy Feenstra from Hull was selected for the US House Ways and Means Committee this week.
Feenstra says he was selected by his Republican colleagues to serve on what he calls the “influential” committee.
Feenstra says, “I am humbled to be selected to serve on the House Ways and Means Committee for the 118th Congress to continue my work serving and delivering for Iowa. From agriculture and trade matters to healthcare and tax policy, Ways and Means covers a wide array of legislative priorities important to our agricultural community and rural way of life. As a member of the Ways and Means Committee, I will continue to be a strong voice for Iowa families, farmers, producers, taxpayers, and small business owners who deserve a seat at the table.”
House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO) praised Feenstra’s appointment saying, “Congressman Feenstra is a leader in fighting for the interests of rural America, and he will continue that leadership on the Ways and Means Committee. He will be an invaluable partner in solving the major challenges that face rural America – opening up new markets for farmers, creating jobs, and expanding access to health care, to name a few. The Ways and Means Committee is ready to advance a bold Republican agenda that supports the millions of working-class families struggling after two years of Democrat one-party rule.”
