Congressman Garcia (D-CA) joins Yasmin Vossoughian to discuss a federal funding bill and Republican disfunction.

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) joins Alex Witt to discuss the obstacles facing Biden’s border policy amid the surge in migrants at the Southern border, the fallout from Colorado’s ruling disqualifying Trump from the state’s ballot, and California's lieutenant governor Eleni Kounalakis sending a letter urging for the removal of Donald Trump from California's 2024 primary ballot.

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.) decided to do things a little differently from the moment he took his oath in January, choosing to get sworn in to Congress with a first-edition “Superman No. 1” comic, alongside the Constitution. 

“In a letter to the Army Secretary on Friday, Representative Robert Garcia, a Democrat from California, said that ‘federal subsidies may be artificially increasing the availability of ammunition in the civilian marketplace and contributing to serious violence by private citizens.’ … Mr. Garcia cited The Times’s reporting, as well as a subsequently published Bloomberg article about Lake City … Earlier this month Mr. Garcia, along with Senators Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida, introduced a bill aimed at putting more controls on ammunition sales — which are largely unregulated — by requiring sellers to obtain a federal license and to conduct background checks on buyers. It would also limit bulk sales of ammunition and prevent so-called straw purchases, in which a buyer with a clean record turns around and sells to someone else.”
