Congressman Pat Harrigan: The Call for Change in Congress and the OWTA Movement!

As the government shutdown continues to drag on for a record-setting 37 days, Congressman Pat Harrigan is stepping up to the plate with a bold proposal that might just shake things up in Washington. He’s throwing his support behind the OWTA movement—”Out With Their Asses”—and believes it’s critical to hold congresspeople accountable. It’s like a political reality show where everyone needs to look in the mirror and decide if they really deserve to stay in the game.

In a recent interview, Harrigan stressed that American citizens are the true victims in this government standoff. He didn’t mince words, stating,“The only thing that’s assured during a government shutdown is that the American people lose.”It’s hard to argue with that logic. After all, when was the last time a late-night talk show host didn’t make a joke about Congress while Americans struggled to get by?

But Harrigan doesn’t stop there—oh no. He’s advocating for a fresh batch of veterans to take up Congress roles, suggesting that their real-world experience could pave the way for more meaningful dialogue. If military men and women could help steer the country with their no-nonsense approach, maybe it’s time to trade in the suits for some camo. Wouldn’t that make for a lively session on the Hill?

It’s clear Harrigan is making waves with his ideas, and it raises the question: Are we ready for the kind of change he’s proposing? With politics in a perpetual state of gridlock, it’s anyone’s guess how this will unfold. What do you think—should we really get veterans more involved in Congress, or is it just another gimmick?
