Rep. Russ Fulcher, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Idaho's 1st district, has shared several tweets addressing key legislative priorities and initiatives. His social media posts highlight his commitment to cutting government waste, supporting tax cuts, defending Western American lifestyles, and promoting U.S. manufacturing competitiveness.

On February 12, 2025, Rep. Fulcher emphasized the importance of reducing government expenditure and providing tax relief for Americans. He stated: "Cutting government waste and delivering tax cuts for hardworking Americans must be two of our top priorities." He also introduced the Keep Act, H.R. 405, which aims to eliminate taxes on overtime work.

Later that day, Fulcher expressed pride in co-leading the WEST Act as a fourth-generation Idahoan. He tweeted: "As a fourth-generation Idahoan, I am proud to co-lead the WEST Act." The bill seeks to reverse a rule by the Biden administration that he claims would restrict access to millions of acres across the United States.

On February 13, 2025, Rep. Fulcher conveyed confidence in America's ability to excel in manufacturing compared to other nations like China. He remarked: "The U.S. has the capability to outcompete and outperform China—or any other country—in manufacturing if we fully utilize our technologies, resources, and personnel."
