Born and Raised in San Antonio
Johnny Garcia is a lifelong resident of San Antonio and a proud graduate of Memorial High School. Raised by a strong mother in a working-class household, Johnny knows firsthand the challenges that everyday Texans face. From a young age, he understood that if he wanted a better life, he'd have to earn it through hard work, discipline, and service.
A Career Built on Service, Trust & Results
Johnny started his law enforcement career working in the jail, where he led the Inmate Worker Program—a second-chance initiative designed to rehabilitate people in custody through job training and reintegration planning.
Why Johnny's Running
An old school Democrat, Johnny is fighting for the voice working families deserve — for people like his mom, and his fellow deputies on patrol, and their children too. He believes hard work should be rewarded, healthcare should be affordable, and safety should be everyone's priority. And despite what Republicans promised, they've lied every step of the way.
Johnny is stepping up to fight for the working class of Texas, because when working families are put first, Texas prospers. He's running to make sure the people of District 35 see results… not in talking points, but in their wallets, their schools, and their neighborhoods.
Members of the U.S. House of Representatives write and vote on federal laws, including the federal budget. Each represents one district and serves a two-year term. Tax bills must start in the House, only the House can impeach federal officials, and members oversee federal agencies through their committees.
