How a farmworker’s son-turned politician is fighting “the serious crisis with Mother Earth”
Working with his parents harvesting produce in the 100-degree agricultural fields of southern California, Eduardo Garcia never imagined growing up and becoming a state assemblyman. But unlikely events led to a spark to make decisions for his community—and today, Garcia is the climate-change-fighting assemblyman representing California's 56th District. Fierce about saving California’s embattled ecosystem, Garcia authored a bill to allocate almost $4 billion to fight wildfires and drought. He talks with Yesh Pavlik Slenk about how he got here, what he’s fighting for, and why he still has to battle for basic rights to clean water and air.
