Rep. Rick Crawford, who represents Arkansas’s 1st district in the U.S. Congress, posted a series of updates on his social media accounts addressing farmers, celebrating the U.S. Space Force, and notifying constituents about technical issues with his website.
On December 16, 2025, Crawford addressed agricultural producers regarding federal assistance: “Farmers: Relief is coming thanks to the Trump Administration’s $12B Farmer Bridge Assistance Program. Payments are expected by February of 2026. BUT, the key deadline this Friday. Your 2025 acreage reporting MUST be completed with your local FSA office by 5 PM THIS FRIDAY,”.
Later that day, he expressed gratitude to the U.S. Space Force: “Thank you @USSpaceForce for delivering these beautiful cookies in honor of the Space Force’s 6th birthday! God bless our Guardians who secure the final frontier. #SpaceForceBirthday #SemperSupra https://t.co/eunwLwQFdJ”.
On December 17, Crawford informed followers about a temporary outage affecting his official website: ” My team is aware that my website is currently down and we are working to get it back up and running ASAP. In the meantime, my offices can be reached at the numbers below Washington D.C. – (202) 225-4076 Jonesboro – (870) 203-0540″.
