“In the wake of the COVID-19 response, workers and the local economy need more help than ever. Countless charity organizations have taken leading roles in providing much-needed resources for local communities over the last three months, according to Garcia’s office.
“‘Throughout my entire life, I have felt this inherent need to serve my country and my community,’ said Garcia. ‘Even now in my new role in Congress, I cannot help but be inspired by so many organizations that give so selflessly to help those who need it the most…’
