Navy Fighter Pilot Garcia Focused on CA-25 Security

Valencia, CA – As the Chinese Communist Party celebrates 100 years of oppression, while increasing their ever-growing threat to our nation’s economic and military security, including its misinformation campaign about the origin of COVID-19, Congressman Mike Garcia this week was appointed by Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy as a co-chair of the China Accountability Task Force.

“It is imperative that we get to the bottom of the COVID-19 pandemic and hold China accountable for the role they had in its outbreak and the damage it caused to America,” said Garcia. “Ensuring the security of CA-25 families and all Americans is my top priority, which means standing up to the Chinese Communist Party and the threat they pose to our economic and national security.”

Garcia’s appointment comes as the Chinese Communist Party celebrates 100 years of existence and a day after new reports signal they are expanding their nuclear capabilities with new missile silos while building out their arsenal of DF-41 ICBM’s, the world’s longest range nuclear missile.

Garcia will join Congressman Mike McCaul (TX-10) as they seek to hold China accountable for their role in the pandemic that wrecked the American economy.
