Congressman Robert Garcia has been vocal on social media, addressing various political and economic issues. His recent tweets focus on government efficiency, international trade policies, and labor rights.
On March 3, 2025, Congressman Garcia highlighted the importance of government efficiency by pointing out that "Democrats support making government more efficient – for starters, the Department of Defense can't even pass an audit." He criticized Elon Musk for "gutting departments and firing essential workers," urging all Americans to be aware of this situation.
On March 4, 2025, he expressed concern over former President Trump's trade policies, stating that "Trump is raising costs across the board by slapping tariffs on Canada and Mexico." He warned that these actions would increase expenses for essential goods and services like gas and groceries, negatively impacting working families who rely on trade for employment.
Later that day, Congressman Garcia announced his invitation to Yvonne Wheeler from @LALabor to attend Trump’s Joint Address to Congress. In his tweet, he emphasized the significance of unions in America: "I've invited Yvonne Wheeler...to represent workers across L.A. County who are pushing back against Elon Musk and Donald Trump's attacks on working families."
