Rep. Mike Garcia

CA-25 (Republican)

Congressman Garcia has stood up against the pro-abortion agenda of the Biden-Harris administration and Pelosi Democrats who are actively working to expand abortion access and abortion funding. Rep.

This includes stopping hard-earned tax dollars from paying for abortion, whether domestically or internationally, and protecting health care provider rights for those who refuse to engage in brutal abortions.

Congressman Garcia sent a letter along with all GOP appropriators to Appropriations Chair Rosa DeLauro saying they would oppose all attempts to remove the Hyde Amendment or any Hyde-type policies from appropriations bills.
