Rep. Sylvia Garcia, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 29th district, shared her thoughts and concerns on various political issues through a series of tweets on March 12, 2025. These posts reflect her engagement with constituents and her stance on national matters.

In a tweet posted at 17:03 UTC, Rep. Garcia reached out to individuals affected by DOGE or the federal funding freeze, inviting them to share their experiences. She stated: "Have you been impacted by DOGE or the federal funding freeze? We want to hear from you! Please fill out this form or call my office at 832-325-3151 to share your story. Your voice matters!"

Later that day, at 18:01 UTC, she criticized the Trump Administration's approach towards public education in another tweet: "The Trump Administration wants to shut down the Department of Education like it’s one of Trump’s bankrupt casinos. The losers? Our kids, teachers, and families who rely on public schools. This isn’t 'draining the swamp,' it’s draining opportunity from future generations."

Finally, at 23:55 UTC, Rep. Garcia expressed support for a legislative measure aimed at maintaining government operations while seeking a bipartisan funding agreement: "House Democrats stand united for a four-week funding extension that stops harmful cuts, keeps government open, and allows Congress to reach a bipartisan funding agreement. I am ready to vote today, tomorrow or Friday to pass a four-week extension."
