Randy Feenstra Under Fire From His Own Party for CCP-Linked Ag Campaign Contributions
Feenstra is bankrolled by the same Chinese agriculture giants buying up American farmland he claims to oppose
DES MOINES – Randy Feenstra is in the hot seat after the Washington Examiner revealed he took over $20,000 from agricultural companies owned by the Chinese Communist Party, despite publicly claiming that blocking Chinese ownership of American farmland is a “cornerstone of his congressional career” and “highlight[ing] this position during his ongoing run for Iowa governor.”
Iowa Republicans were quick to call out “Runaway Randy” for pocketing thousands from Chinese government-owned companies buying up Iowa farmland and threatening our national security, calling Feenstra a “treasonist” and “completely unfit for office.”
Here’s what Iowa Republicans are saying about Feenstra’s CCP-linked ag donation scandal:
- GOP gubernatorial candidate Adam Steen: “Randy wants to brag about banning China from buying farmland, yet he’s still taking their money. Runaway Randy isn’t just running away from Iowans — he’s running toward big money and corporate interests.”
- Christian conservative leader Bob Vander Plaats: “This campaign of @RepFeenstra is like watching a train wreck in slow motion.”
- Former IA-04 Congressman Steve King: “The last thing Iowan tolerate is a hypocrite. Worse yet, a treasonist one.”
- Former IA-04 Congressional candidate Kevin Virgil: “I ran for Congress two years ago because anyone who was paying attention could see that @RandyFeenstra is completely unfit for office. This story is just the latest in a long list of reasons why.”
