Rep. Andy Harris, MD, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Maryland’s 1st district since 2011, posted a series of tweets from January 19 to January 21, 2026, addressing national figures and policy issues.
On January 19, Harris commemorated Martin Luther King Jr. Day by stating: “Honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. today and his lifelong work toward a more just and united nation.”
The following day, he commented on the first anniversary of President Trump’s inauguration: “Today marks ONE year since President Trump’s inauguration.
After four years of Biden’s failed policies that left families struggling, President Trump has already delivered real results for Americans in just 12 months.
Inflation DOWN from 9% to 2.7%
Eight straight months” (posted on January 20).
On January 21, Harris addressed healthcare reform and pricing transparency: “The lack of price transparency leads directly to a lot of the problems we have, and I really do believe the President is right when he says that price transparency is one of the answers in health care.”
Harris has represented Maryland’s Eastern Shore and parts of Baltimore County since replacing Frank Kratovil in Congress in 2011. Before his tenure in the House of Representatives, he served in both chambers of Maryland’s state legislature from 1999 to 2011.
