Sylvia Garcia, representing Texas’ 29th district in the U.S. Congress, took to social media to comment on various issues affecting her constituents and nationwide policies. Her series of posts on March 31, 2025, covers topics ranging from labor rights to religious celebrations and consumer protection.

On March 31, 2025, Sylvia Garcia addressed the executive order by former President Trump, describing it as "a direct attack on their [federal workers'] rights and their unions." She vowed to support the American Federation of Government Employees in their opposition, emphasizing, "Labor rights are human rights—and we won’t back down."

Later that day, Garcia extended her best wishes to those celebrating Eid, stating, "Eid Mubarak! Wishing a joyful and blessed Eid to all who celebrate in TX-29. May this day bring peace and happiness to you and your loved ones."

Subsequently, Garcia commented on a court decision regarding the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. She indicated that Trump's "attempt to dismantle" the agency was halted in a federal court, but cautioned, "the attacks on consumer protections aren’t stopping."
