Russ Fulcher, a current member of the U.S. Congress representing Idaho’s 1st district, has recently shared his stance on several political issues via his Twitter account. Fulcher, who succeeded Raúl Labrador in 2019, has been a vocal advocate for various legislative measures.

In a tweet dated March 31, 2025, Fulcher expressed his support for the upcoming House vote on a bill proposing states verify U.S. citizenship during voter registration. He described it as "a simple, common-sense policy measure to safeguard our elections." Fulcher emphasized his role as an "original co-sponsor of the SAVE Act" and confirmed his intention to vote in favor. "This week, the House will vote on a bill to require states to verify U.S. citizenship when registering folks to vote—a simple, common-sense policy measure to safeguard our elections."

Later on March 31, 2025, Fulcher highlighted energy independence and the importance of domestic production in another statement. He noted the current reliance on other countries for "energy resources or the critical minerals needed for our technology and defense capabilities." Fulcher advocated for revitalizing industries within the United States to reduce dependency. "The well-being of the American People should not hinge on adversarial nations for energy resources or the critical minerals needed for our technology and defense capabilities."

On April 1, 2025, Fulcher praised the significant decrease in illegal border crossings over the past year, attributing this reduction to decisive actions by the current administration. He also introduced the No Rogue Rulings Act on his Twitter feed, which aims to limit the power of U.S. district judges to issue nationwide injunctions. Fulcher expressed his commitment to supporting the legislation. "Illegal border crossings are down 94% since March 2024 due to the decisive work of this White House."
