Rick W. Allen, U.S. Representative for Georgia’s 12th congressional district, published a series of posts on social media reflecting on national remembrance, constitutional rights, and defense policy.

On September 11, 2025, Allen commemorated the anniversary of the September 11 attacks with a post stating: “Today, we remember.
We remember the lives lost.
We remember the heroes who ran toward danger.
We remember the unity that brought us together in the face of unthinkable tragedy.

24 years later, we still carry the memory of September 11, 2001. We will never forget. https://t.co/PDFo4ZP3te

The following day, September 12, Allen expressed gratitude to former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi for her efforts regarding constitutional rights and parental support: “Thank you, @AGPamBondi, for your leadership on upholding constitutional rights and supporting parents in America. https://t.co/BRifmJC7R8”

Later on September 12, Allen commented on national defense legislation: “The Fiscal Year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) restores peace through strength and ensures our fighting force remains the STRONGEST in the world.
