Rep. Dan Newhouse, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Washington’s 4th district, has recently shared several updates on his official social media platform. These posts reflect his ongoing legislative efforts and committee appointments relevant to his constituency in Central Washington.

On January 22, 2025, Rep. Newhouse reaffirmed the importance of infrastructure projects in the region by stating, "Today we reaffirm the Lower Snake River dams as vital pieces of infrastructure for Central Washington and the Pacific Northwest."

The following day, January 23, 2025, he announced a significant legislative development with the passage of a new act: "The House just PASSED the Fix Our Forest Act that will revitalize the way we approach forest health and prioritize local stewardship. This is a huge step in preventing catastrophic wildfires, an issue Central Washington is no stranger to."

On January 24, 2025, Rep. Newhouse expressed enthusiasm about his roles on key agricultural subcommittees: "Excited to join the @HouseAgGOP Subcommittee on Forestry and Horticulture and the Subcommittee on Conservation, Research, and Biotechnology. Ready to get to work on a strong #FarmBill!"
