Rep. Pat Fallon, a U.S. Congressman representing Texas' 4th District since 2021, highlighted several legislative topics and government issues through a series of tweets dated April 10, 2025, focusing on federal agency operations, voting legislation, and technology security.

On April 10, 2025, Rep. Fallon expressed concern over the occupancy rates of federal agency buildings, stating, "A majority of the largest federal agency buildings weren't even at 25% capacity in 2023. Meanwhile, the federal government was spending $7 billion on leases alone for buildings that employees weren't even showing up to. Figures like these are why @DOGEcommittee exists."

Later on the same day, Fallon announced his support for the SAVE Act, conveying his approval of the legislative measure designed to enhance electoral procedures. He tweeted, "Proud to vote for the SAVE Act today, which requires states to clean up voter rolls and prohibits non-citizens from voting in our elections. This much needed legislation restores election integrity in American elections. Massive victory for the American people."

Concluding the day's tweets, Fallon addressed the importance of technology protection through the SAFE Supply Chains Act. He highlighted the legislation's intent to shield technological infrastructure from foreign intervention, particularly from China. Fallon stated, "The SAFE Supply Chains Act is a critical step to protect our tech from foreign threats. By keeping adversaries like China from undermining our capabilities, we are securing our government systems and standing firm to safeguard our national security."

Pat Fallon, who took over from John Ratcliffe in 2021, has been active in Congress, working on various legislative initiatives. He served in the Texas House of Representatives from 2013 to 2019 and the Texas Senate from 2019 to 2021. Now 55, the Pittsfield, Massachusetts native resides in Frisco and is an alumnus of the University of Notre Dame with a Bachelor's degree.
