Oh yeah! ✊😔🙌🔥🗳️
Humbled. Honored. And completely ready to work. Louisiana, it is official: we have just earned the endorsement of the Louisiana Democratic Party!
But let’s be entirely clear about what this endorsement actually means. This isn’t a stamp of approval for a standard, safe, polite campaign. This is a validation of the movement WE built together on the ground. It’s a sign that the political establishment is finally hearing the roar of working families from Baton Rouge down to the bayou who are tired of being treated like pawns.
I’m not running to sit quietly in Washington or play backroom games. I am running to flip tables. This endorsement is fuel for the fire, and we are taking this fight all the way to Election Day and beyond. We are going to protect our communities, claim our power, and ensure that our representatives actually answer to the people—not corporate interests, and not vote suppressing politicians.
I’m Lindsay “Rubia” Garcia, a single mother, the youngest of 10, and the daughter of a Marine. I’m also a lifelong Louisianan who knows what working families are up against.
I spent nearly a decade teaching social studies, stood with the families of the workers killed in the Hard Rock Hotel collapse, and organized against police brutality and immigration raids.
I went to Southern University Law Center to gain the legal tools to keep fighting. During law school, I worked with Voice of the Experienced to defend the rights of formerly incarcerated people, tracked legislation at the Capitol, and helped make sure Louisianans knew how their lawmakers voted.
Now, I’m running for Congress.
On April 29, Governor Jeff Landry canceled our election and threw out 45,000 mail-in ballots. I stayed up all night reading the VRA decision. The next morning, when my team suggested releasing a statement, I said, “No. We’re filing a federal lawsuit.” We filed that same day. Today, ours is the only pending lawsuit still actively challenging Landry’s voter suppression in court.
I’m ready to fight for our healthcare, schools, economic security, and fundamental right to have our votes counted. But I can’t do it alone.
