Rep. Burgess Owens, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Utah’s 4th district, shared several insights on December 9, 2024, through a series of tweets. The topics ranged from agricultural education to national strength and policies on diversity.
In his first tweet at 16:59 UTC, Owens expressed gratitude towards Harward Farms in Springville for their role in educating young Utahns about agriculture through initiatives like AG in the Classroom with USU Aggies. He emphasized that "helping students explore careers in farming is how we grow a strong future."
Later, at 18:03 UTC, Owens declared that "peace through strength is back," attributing this sentiment to former President Trump’s leadership. He stated, "Under President Trump, America doesn't apologize for its greatness—we embrace it."
