Senator Joni Ernst has recently addressed several policy issues and legislative milestones through her social media posts. Her statements, made on September 15 and 16, 2025, cover topics ranging from international diplomacy to immigration enforcement and agricultural policy.

On September 15, Ernst marked the anniversary of a significant diplomatic event, stating: "My statement on the fifth anniversary of the historic Abraham Accords. https://t.co/Eui8okNSZJ". The Abraham Accords were agreements brokered in 2020 between Israel and several Arab nations, aiming to normalize relations in the Middle East.

Later that day, she commented on immigration enforcement with a reference to Sarah's Law: "Another horrific example of why making Sarah's Law the law of the land was needed to protect American lives.

Now, any illegal immigrant who causes harm to an American citizen will be detained by ICE instead of being released back into the community. https://t.co/YD8ZkFh4vt". Sarah's Law is named after Sarah Root, an Iowa woman killed by an undocumented immigrant in 2016. The legislation requires U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to detain undocumented immigrants charged with causing death or serious injury.

On September 16, Ernst highlighted her support for agricultural producers: "Fertilizer is an essential tool our farmers rely on to maintain healthy soil and improve crop yields.

The Fertilizer Research Act will help drive down costs and make life more affordable for both farmers and consumers.

Senator Joni Ernst represents Iowa in the United States Senate. She has been active in advocating for agricultural interests due to Iowa’s role as a leading farming state. Her recent comments also reflect ongoing debates over border security measures and U.S. foreign policy achievements such as the Abraham Accords.
