Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland has recently addressed several issues on her social media account, ranging from youth leadership recognition to federal disaster relief and military personnel decisions.

On April 15, 2026, Strickland posted about her participation in a local youth event: “It was an honor to join @BGCSPS and their 2026 Youth of the Year winner, Mo Jensen, to celebrate the mission of this organization – shaping, protecting, and supporting the leaders of tomorrow.”

Later that day, she commented on federal support following natural disasters: “After the historic flooding that devastated our state in 2025, it is good to see that federal disaster relief is finally coming home. This is what’s possible when the government works to serve the people. READ: https://t.co/xaefcoDIC0”

On April 16, 2026, Strickland criticized a recent decision regarding military leadership: “General George was qualified. He was a true patriot. He should not have been fired. Secretary Hegseth, I look forward to hearing your explanation for such a reckless decision.”

Marilyn Strickland has served as a Republican member of the North Carolina State House since 2017 after succeeding James Langdon, Jr., representing the state’s 28th House district.
