Congressman Mike Simpson, currently serving Idaho’s 2nd district in the U.S. Congress, shared his thoughts on various issues through a series of tweets on March 18, 2025.

In a tweet commemorating National Agriculture Day, Simpson expressed gratitude towards American farmers, emphasizing their role in feeding and clothing the nation. He encouraged people to join him in thanking farmers from Idaho and across America.

Later that day, Simpson addressed political disagreements in another tweet. He condemned acts of vandalism and arson, stating they are criminal acts rather than legitimate forms of political expression. He criticized what he perceives as the Left’s tendency towards destructive behavior, attributing it to low approval ratings.
