[constituency_baseline] District summary: North Carolina's 10th Congressional District encompasses the central-western portion of the state, stretching from the Charlotte suburbs through the foothills into rural Piedmont communities. The district includes all of Catawba, Iredell, Lincoln, and Yadkin counties, plus most of Forsyth County including much of Winston-Salem. Home to approximately 766,029 constituents, the district is predominantly White (68.2%) with a significant Black minority (15.5%) and growing Hispanic population (11.8%). The median household income is $70,226 — nearly double the $37,585 national median — with a poverty rate of 9.2% (below the 12.4% national average). Homeownership is 68.6%, median home value is $261,600, and median rent is $1,075. The population skews slightly older than the national average (median age 40.4 vs. 38.5). Only 32.8% of adults hold a bachelor's degree — roughly at the national average — while 10.2% lack a high school diploma. The economy is anchored in manufacturing, healthcare, logistics and distribution (centered around interstate corridors), furniture manufacturing (the Hickory area is known as the 'Furniture Capital of the World'), and agriculture. Major employers include Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist, Commscope Inc, and numerous manufacturing operations. The district has a Cook PVI of R+100 (per LegisLetter, essentially uncompetitive) and is the successor seat to retiring ten-term Republican Patrick McHenry, the former House Financial Services Committee Chairman. Harrigan won the 2024 general election with approximately 58% of the vote after switching his candidacy from NC-14 to NC-10 following McHenry's retirement announcement.

Voted sponsored on H.R. 498 (Do No Harm in Medicaid Act (2025)) on 2025-03-14: Harrigan co-sponsored legislation prohibiting federal Medicaid funds from being used to pay for irreversible gender transition procedures for minors. This aligns with his socially conservative platform and reflects the culture-war dimension of his legislative agenda. The bill, combined with his OBBBA vote for massive Medicaid cuts, creates a dissonance: he wants to restrict what Medicaid covers while simultaneously voting to cut Medicaid funding.

Voted yea on H.R. 4 (Rescissions Act of 2025 (CPB Defunding)) on 2025-06-12: Harrigan voted yea on legislation clawing back funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The CWA opposed this bill, stating it undermined 'vital local stations that deliver news, emergency alerts, educational programming, and community resources.' His district has 10.2% of residents lacking a high school diploma and a 32.8% bachelor's degree rate — public educational broadcasting could be particularly impactful in such districts. The vote was party-line.

Voted yea on H.R. 6703 (Lower Health Care Premiums for All Americans Act) on 2025-12-17: Harrigan voted yea on legislation that the CWA said 'will shift healthcare costs from employers and insurers onto workers by allowing stripped-down health plans that do not meet ACA essential health benefits requirements.' His NC-10 district has a 9.2% poverty rate and thousands of residents reliant on ACA plans and Medicaid. The CWA marked this as a key vote against working people. Harrigan voted nay on the CWA-preferred position, consistent with his 0% lifetime CWA score.

Voted yea on H.Con.Res. 14 (FY 2025 Budget Resolution (Reconciliation Framework)) on 2025-02-21: Harrigan voted yea on the budget resolution that set the framework for the OBBBA reconciliation, requiring trillions in mandatory savings from Medicaid and SNAP. The CWA opposed the resolution, stating it 'threatens the financial security and well-being of millions of American workers by prioritizing tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations at the expense of essential programs that support working families.' Harrigan voted against working people on this measure per the CWA scorecard. The vote was party-line and enabled the $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts he would subsequently vote for in the OBBBA.

Voted nay on H.Con.Res. 35 (Iran War Powers Resolution — March 5, 2026) on 2026-03-05: Harrigan voted nay on the bipartisan resolution to terminate unauthorized U.S. military operations in Iran, joining 218 other Republicans to defeat it 219-212. He told Newsmax that the strike on Iran was 'inevitable' and that Trump had 'complied with the War Powers Resolution.' However, he stressed the conflict 'must stay limited' and 'cannot be open-ended.' He also supported Operation Midnight Hammer, the U.S.-Israeli joint strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, calling them 'necessary to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.' As a Green Beret and Armed Services Committee member, his national-security votes carry particular weight. The vote aligned with Trump's executive war-making authority.

Voted yea on H.R. 29 (Laken Riley Act (119th Congress, January 7, 2025)) on 2025-01-07: Harrigan's first major legislative vote as a congressman was yea on mandatory ICE detention for undocumented immigrants accused of nonviolent crimes including shoplifting. He called it 'a vital step toward securing our border and protecting American families.' His NC-10 district is overwhelmingly native-born with a relatively small immigrant population — making this a politically safe hardline immigration vote. All 217 House Republicans present voted yea. The bill passed 263-156 with 46 Democratic defections. Harrigan also introduced the Foreign Adversary Federal Offense (FAFO) Act, imposing tough penalties for espionage for China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea — reflecting his national-security-focused legislative agenda.

[vote] Harrigan voted yea on the OBBBA (H.R. 1) on both May 22 and July 3, 2025. The CBO projected the bill would add $3.4 trillion to the national debt over ten years and cut approximately $1 trillion from Medicaid and SNAP. His own press release touted '$4 trillion in tax relief' while omitting any mention of the projected deficit increase or Medicaid cuts. Constituents from Indivisible Citizens of Catawba Valley presented a letter signed by nearly 100 constituents at his Hickory office, warning the bill 'cuts hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicaid, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, and Medicare' and calling it 'the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor to the wealthy in our history.' The CWA gave him a 0% score for 2025, citing the Budget Reconciliation vote as imposing 'deep and damaging cuts to vital programs like Medicaid.'
