Rep. Sylvia Garcia, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 29th district, has been active on social media discussing various issues of public concern. Her recent tweets reflect her engagement with financial services legislation, constitutional adherence, and local governance.

On January 22, 2025, Rep. Garcia posted about her participation in a Financial Services markup meeting: "Today, I’m at a Financial Services markup to vote on the rules that will govern our committee work. I am advocating to strengthen our financial system, combat the growing wealth gap, & ensure underserved communities can fully access & benefit from financial services."

Later that day, she addressed concerns regarding presidential powers and constitutional law: "This is a clear violation of the Constitution. No president can ignore laws passed by Congress, a co-equal branch of government, or undermine due process. Such an abuse of power should concern all Americans. The rule of law must always apply, and no president is above it."

In another tweet on January 22nd, Rep. Garcia expressed gratitude towards Houston's mayor for positive developments: "Good news. Thank you @houmayor & all involved."
