Congrats to former State Rep. Juan Garcia on his new gig.
The White House issued a news release announcing Juan Garcia, Obama’s former law school classmate and one-term Texas House member, will be nominated to be Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Manpower and Reserve Affairs).
Obama said of the slate of administration nominees announced along with Garcia:
“These fine public servants are welcome additions to my team as we work to put America on a path towards prosperity and keep our nation safe. I am honored they will be joining my administration and look forward to working with them in the months and years ahead.”
I’m sure he’ll do a fine job. And I hope in a few years he’ll come back to Texas and run for something again. Garcia had statewide ambitions at one time, back before his successful run for the State House against Gene Seamon. I trust that urge hasn’t fully gone away. If so, there will be plenty of opportunities in another four to six years.
