RALEIGH, N.C. (Aug. 6, 2024) – The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), the nation’s leading small business advocacy organization, endorsed Pat Harrigan for election to the United States House of Representatives to represent North Carolina’s 10^th Congressional District.

“Pat Harrigan is a proven leader with business acumen and a commitment to service,” said Gregg Thompson, NFIB North Carolina State Director. “Pat and his wife, Rocky, are independent business owners, operating a gun manufacturing facility in the 10^th District. I look forward to working with Pat Harrigan on business issues, which I’m confident he is extremely familiar with being an independent business owner himself. Pat will bring a renewed perspective to Congress with his extensive military and business experience, and we are proud to endorse him today.”

“A former Green Beret and small business owner, Pat Harrigan is intimately familiar with the issues facing Main Street and will confront these challenges at a time when leadership is needed,” said Sharon Sussin, NFIB Senior National Political Director. “He has pledged to support pro-growth policies that benefit America’s job creators, and we are proud to endorse him today.”

The endorsement is issued from NFIB FedPAC, NFIB’s political action committee. NFIB FedPAC is funded by voluntary contributions by NFIB members over and above their membership dues. Decisions made by the NFIB FedPAC are managed by a member-driven grassroots evaluation.
