Rep. Steve Womack, who represents Arkansas’ 3rd district in the U.S. Congress, recently highlighted economic and infrastructure developments in the River Valley region through a series of posts on his social media account.

On August 22, 2025, Womack shared details about a recent visit to a local manufacturing facility: “I toured Silgan Plastic Food Containers’ facility in Fort Smith, which produces containers for Mars Petcare’s nearby plant. It’s another example of how the River Valley is helping power American manufacturing and all the great things that come with it like good-paying jobs.”

Later that day, he posted about an event marking the start of a major transportation project: “It was an honor to host Gov. @SarahHuckabee and @RepWesterman in the Third District to kick off the first phase of construction to connect Interstate 49—a project that’s been close to my heart throughout my time in Congress. Today isn’t just about pouring concrete; it’s about”

On August 23, 2025, Womack reflected on his involvement with regional development initiatives: “Proud to be apart of this decades long endeavor that will result in a better connected—and more prosperous—River Valley, state, and nation.”

Womack has represented Arkansas’s 3rd District since 2011 after succeeding John Boozman. He was born in Russellville, Arkansas in 1957 and currently resides in Rogers. Womack graduated from Arkansas Tech University with a BA in 1979.
