Congressman Pat Harrigan has recently addressed a range of international and domestic issues in a series of social media posts. Harrigan, who won his congressional seat in 2024 by defeating Ralph R. Scott, Jr. with 57.5% of the vote, commented on the ceasefire involving Iran, congratulated NASA on an achievement, and criticized legal actions against military personnel in allied nations.

On April 10, 2026, Harrigan posted concerns regarding recent developments with Iran: “I’m glad cooler heads prevailed and a ceasefire is in place, but before anyone starts treating Iran like a good faith negotiating partner, let me be precise about who we are dealing with.

This is a regime that massacred over 30,000 of its own citizens in January, when ordinary”.

The following day, April 11, 2026, he acknowledged achievements at NASA by stating: “What an achievement. Congrats to everyone at @NASA! https://t.co/c75gWk4cJk”.

On April 12, 2026, Harrigan addressed the prosecution of elite military personnel among U.S. allies: “Have been engaged with this for some time.

Harrigan’s victory over Ralph R. Scott, Jr., where he secured nearly three-fifths of the vote in the 2024 general election, established his current role as a U.S. Congressman representing his district.
