On June 6, 2025, Rep. Harris commemorated the anniversary of D-Day with a tribute to those who participated in the Normandy landings during World War II.

Their sacrifice must never be forgotten. All gave some, some gave all.”

Later that day, he expressed criticism over government spending related to immigration enforcement. In a post dated June 6, 2025, he remarked on what he perceived as an inefficient use of taxpayer funds: “What a waste of hard-earned taxpayer dollars. Bringing an already deported illegal alien criminal back to the US to be housed in a US jail at taxpayer expense so he can stand trial and then be deported back to his homeland.”

On June 7, 2025, Rep. Harris addressed concerns about national fiscal policy amidst significant budget deficits. He emphasized the need for financial discipline by stating: “In an era of unrelenting $2 trillion deficits, fiscal restraint has to start, and it has to start now.”
