Listen: Freshman Rep. Robert Garcia says 'we've got to organize' to combat anti-LGBTQ violence and legislation
June 6, 2023
Rep. Robert Garcia, a freshman Democratic congressman from Long Beach, says he has no interest in working with anti-LGBTQ Republicans.
"If you are a Republican House member and you don't respect my basic humanity as a person, then I really have zero interest in working with you," he says.
On this episode of the It’s All Political on Fifth & Mission podcast, Garcia also talks to host Joe Garofoli about why he’s leading the charge to expel Rep. George Santos, why attacks on trans youth are so dangerous, and why he swore the oath of office not on a Bible, but on a Superman comic book — as well as the Constitution and pictures of family members.
