Congressman Robert Garcia, representing California's 42nd District, recently expressed his thoughts on various political issues through a series of tweets. Garcia, who has served in Congress since 2023 after succeeding Ken Calvert, addressed the passing of a fellow politician, current events involving New York City leadership, and upcoming media appearances.
On March 5th, Congressman Garcia conveyed his condolences regarding the death of Rep. Sylvester Turner. In his tweet, he stated: "I'm deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Rep. Sylvester Turner. I'm thankful to have worked with him while we were both mayors. He was a great mayor, national leader, and a kind public servant who loved Houston and our country. He will be greatly missed."
Later that day, Garcia commented on political developments involving New York City's Mayor Eric Adams. He tweeted: "Eric Adams is selling out New Yorkers to save himself from prosecution from Trump’s DOJ. He should resign." This tweet reflects Garcia's stance on what he perceives as an ethical compromise by the mayor.
The following morning on March 6th, Garcia announced an upcoming television appearance where he would discuss former President Donald Trump and Democratic strategies. His tweet read: "I’ll be on @Morning_Joe after 7:15 am eastern to talk Trump and how Dems are fighting back."
