Rep. Sylvia Garcia, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 29th district, took to social media on March 25, 2025, to address several pressing issues through a series of tweets. These messages touch upon gender pay disparity, changes to Social Security services under Republican leadership, and the importance of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
In her first post on March 25, 2025, Rep. Garcia highlighted the issue of gender pay inequality in America. She stated: "Imagine putting in the same hours and the same effort, only to be handed a fraction of the paycheck. That’s the reality for women in America." She expressed her commitment alongside her colleagues from @demwomencaucus to advocate for equitable wages for women on Equal Pay Day.
Later that day, she criticized recent actions by former President Trump and Republicans regarding Social Security services. In her tweet posted at 17:02 UTC, Garcia claimed that "Trump and Republicans are slashing phone services at Social Security," forcing seniors online without adequate support—a move she described as "neglect" and "cruelty by design."
Finally, addressing concerns about nutrition assistance programs, Rep. Garcia emphasized the need to support SNAP in another tweet later that evening at 22:21 UTC. She wrote: "If you care about kids growing up strong, families making it through tough times, and farmers feeding America—then we must protect and strengthen SNAP."
