The committee’s jurisdiction is wide-ranging, touching on everything from the nation’s military to health care, according to Garcia’s office.
“While my subcommittee selection remains to be decided, the opportunities for me to bring this committee assignment home to California are endless,” said Garcia. “No matter what subcommittee I am on, I will have the opportunity to vote on all issues at the full committee. These issues include everything from our military and veterans, science and space, homeland security, financial services and beyond.”
The Republican Leader of the House Appropriations Committee, Representative Kay Granger, released the following statement congratulating Garcia on his committee assignment.
“I am thrilled to welcome Congressman Mike Garcia to the Appropriations Committee,” said House Appropriations Committee Republican Leader Granger. “I know that his experience both as a small business owner as well as a U.S. Navy veteran will serve as an asset to our committee. The Congressman’s strong work ethic and dedication to his constituents in California’s 25th District and the nation will benefit our committee greatly.

Based upon your record so far all I can tell you is thanks for at least warning us.
Great news and congratulations to Congressman, Garcia. I can tell you I have seen a lot of “Garcia” stickers, signs, and flags for your endorsement this past election. As we all know the 25th district is definitely “red country.” Best of luck.
Nope, no thank you.
Congratulations Congressman Mike Garcia. So happy to have you in the 25th district and now on the Appropriations Committee.
Congratulations Mike, I am sure you will be an asset to this important committee! So far, I am very pleased with how you are representing us.
RESIGN; you are a disgrace. RESIGN
Stu Pendajo: That’s an ignorant, childish response—you have no reason, facts, just the typical Liberal banter!
I’m thanking you Ricardo for your restraint, you could of typed Stupid Pendejo, but you held back!
Envy won’t get you anywhere Stupid A Hole
God bless you Mike Garcia. SCV is so proud of you!!!
I certainly don’t envy Mike Garcia. Typical no balls Republican sucking Trumps teats to hold onto his rabid fanbase. If he wanted to have a future in politics he should have stood up for the people of this country and voting yes on impeachment, that would have been “appropriate.” His moral compass points toward scum like Trump and it’s certainly a bad sign for Garcia’s future.
