Russ Fulcher, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Idaho's 1st district since 2019, has shared several updates on his legislative activities and political views through social media posts. Fulcher succeeded Raúl Labrador in this role and previously served in the Idaho Senate from 2005 to 2014.

On March 5, 2025, Russ Fulcher expressed gratitude for the President's support regarding tax policy on overtime work. He stated, "I am grateful for @POTUS’ continued support for NO TAX on overtime. My bill, H.R. 405, the KEEP Act, accomplishes this." Fulcher emphasized his commitment to advancing this legislation to provide financial relief for Americans.

Later that day, Fulcher appeared on a national news network to discuss various topics. He tweeted about his participation in an interview with ABC News: "A short time ago, I joined @ABC to discuss the work DOGE is doing, President Trump’s address to Congress, tariffs, and what the House is doing to change the trajectory of spending in D.C." Fulcher appreciated the platform provided by ABC to talk about these issues.

On March 6, 2025, Russ Fulcher commented on a legal matter involving the State of Idaho. He wrote: "I applaud the decision by President Trump’s Department of Justice to drop the Biden administration's lawsuit against the State of Idaho over the Defense of Life Act." He noted his previous involvement by filing an amicus brief with the U.S. Supreme Court supporting Idaho's position.
