Rep. Mark Alford, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Missouri's 4th district, has shared several updates via his social media platform this week. Alford, who assumed office after Vicky Hartzler in 2023, highlighted significant local developments and community engagements.

On April 16, 2025, Alford spotlighted a key infrastructure project in Pulaski County, Missouri. In his post, Alford emphasized the ongoing work at "Shooting Range 9," a crucial project designed to enhance training facilities for Army personnel. He expressed pride in the collaborative effort, stating "Check out Shooting Range 9: a project that needed crucial funds to enable the best training for our brave Army men and women, allowing them to be warriors for America. Work is underway, and we are so proud of the team effort."

On the following day, April 17, 2025, Alford shared a light-hearted message from his pets, Luke and Leia. With a sense of community spirit, he wished the constituents of Missouri's 4th district an early start to the weekend. He tweeted, "Luke & Leia want to wish #MO04 a Happy #AlmostFriday!", accompanying the message with a photo.

Later that day, Alford posted a tweet linking to an additional resource or update. Though the tweet itself contained no descriptive text, it served as an indication of ongoing communication and transparency from his office, evident in the shared link.

Alford, who resides in Lake Winnebago, carries the legacy of his political career following his studies at the University of Texas at Austin, from where he graduated in 1988.
