Rep. Sylvia Garcia, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 29th district, shared several messages on social media addressing important topics. On January 21, 2025, she posted a series of tweets that touched on themes of faith and immigrant rights.

In her first tweet, Rep. Garcia simply stated "Amen ". This post was made on January 21, 2025.

Later that day, Rep. Garcia emphasized the importance of knowing one's rights regardless of immigration status. She tweeted at 20:39 UTC: "No matter your immigration status, it’s important for you to know your rights if you ever have an encounter with an immigration enforcement agency like ICE. Make sure to stay informed so that you can protect yourself and your loved ones."

Continuing this theme in Spanish, she tweeted shortly thereafter at 20:40 UTC: "No importa su estatus migratorio, es importante que conozca sus derechos en el caso que tenga que interactuar con una agencia de inmigración como ICE. Asegúrese de mantenerse informado para que pueda proteger a sus seres queridos y a usted mismo."
