Rep. Sylvia Garcia, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 29th district, shared her thoughts on various issues through a series of tweets on March 21, 2025. The tweets reflect her commitment to upholding democratic principles and supporting essential community programs.

In a tweet posted at 14:43 UTC, Rep. Garcia expressed concern over reports of a major law firm potentially succumbing to pressure from the Trump administration. She emphasized the importance of lawyers upholding their oath to protect democracy and the legal system. "All lawyers swear an oath to uphold the rule of law and Constitution. They should be willing to stand in the breach to protect our democracy. It’s deeply disturbing if a major law firm capitulated to the Trump administration’s all out assault on our democracy and legal system."

Later that day, at 18:20 UTC, Rep. Garcia reiterated her dedication to safeguarding Social Security, Medicare, and vital community services such as Meals on Wheels for seniors who have contributed significantly to building the nation. "I'm committed to protecting seniors' Social Security, Medicare, and essential community programs like @_MealsOnWheels. Our seniors have spent their lives building this country—we must ensure they have the care and support they deserve."

At 22:11 UTC, she provided an update on her ongoing efforts throughout the week focused on defending Medicare and Medicaid services crucial for millions of seniors and vulnerable communities across America."Happy Friday, it’s time for my weekly update! This week, I’m continuing the fight to protect Medicare and Medicaid because millions of seniors, families, and vulnerable communities rely on them."
