RESOLUTION
Disapproving the behavior of Representative Jesus G. ``Chuy'' Garcia of Illinois.
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. <all>
