Explore Redistricting →Garcia’s tourism committee service connects directly to an industry that matters to Texas. In San Antonio, HD124’s story is two-fold: military-connected visitation and the workforce that helps operate the visitor economy.
Military graduations and military-family visits bring people to San Antonio. That visitation supports hotels, restaurants, transportation, attractions, and downtown activity. Garcia’s own military service makes this connection especially meaningful.
Active Duty & Military FamiliesHD124 residents rise early and help power the visitor economy—preparing food, staffing hotels, moving guests, supporting attractions, events, and the River Walk experience. Tourism is not only where visitors go; it is also who makes the experience possible.
San Antonio Tourism & Visitor EconomyThe goal is not college for everyone. The goal is helping each person choose a realistic path toward stronger earnings, ownership, and wealth.

HD124 is a majority Hispanic or Latino district, but its communities are not economically uniform. The Black Wealth and Asset Capacity lens shows why subgroup-level analysis matters: work, earnings, access to capital, ownership, and wealth-building friction can look very different beneath the district average.
The public-policy question is not simply who earns income. It is whether residents can convert work, skills, entrepreneurship, and income into homes, businesses, appreciating assets, and long-term family wealth.
