Rep. Sylvia Garcia, who has been serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas’ 29th district since 2019, recently shared a series of updates on her official social media account. Garcia, a seasoned politician with a history of public service in both the Texas Senate and U.S. Congress, highlighted several significant events and issues through her tweets.

On January 25, 2025, Rep. Garcia attended the Día de la Mujer Latina Know Your Rights town hall event. She expressed her honor in joining this initiative by stating: "Today, I was honored to join the Día de la Mujer Latina Know Your Rights town hall. We had an important conversation about what it means to understand and protect your rights. Everyone deserves to feel informed, respected, and valued—no matter their status."

Two days later, on January 27, 2025, she tweeted about supporting her colleague during an important ceremony: "It was great to support my friend and community leader, @RepMorales145 , at her swearing-in ceremony this weekend. I look forward to collaborating with her to serve our communities and bring positive change for the people we represent." This tweet underscores her commitment to collaboration with fellow leaders.

Later that day on January 27th as well, Rep. Garcia acknowledged International Holocaust Remembrance Day with a message of commemoration: "Today, we honor the memory of the six million Jews and millions of others murdered during the Holocaust. On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we recommit to fighting antisemitism, hate, and intolerance in all of its forms." This statement reflects her dedication to combating hatred and promoting tolerance.
