In the House of Representatives, U. S.,
November 18, 2025. Whereas, on October 27, 2025, Representative Chuy Garcia of Illinois filed nominating petitions to be on the Democratic primary ballot in March 2026; Whereas, on November 5, 2025, on the last day of filing, Representative Garcia's Chief of Staff, Patty Garcia, submitted her own paperwork to enter the Democratic primary; Whereas, on November 6, after the filing deadline, Representative Garcia confirmed that he would not be seeking another term in 2026 and would be withdrawing his nominating petitions; Whereas Representative Garcia's Chief of Staff was the only Democrat who filed to run in the primary at the direction of Representative Garcia, undermining the process of a free and fair election; and Whereas Representative Garcia's actions are beneath the dignity of his office and incompatible with the spirit of the United States Constitution: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives disapproves of the behavior of the Representative from Illinois Mr. Garcia. Attest:
Clerk.
