Bill Summary
Censuring Representative Robert Garcia of California for inciting violence against a special government employee.
AI Summary
This resolution censures Representative Robert Garcia of California for allegedly inciting violence against Elon Musk, who is described as a special government employee working with the U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization. The resolution stems from Garcia's comments during a February 12, 2025 hearing and subsequent CNN interview, where he reportedly referred to Musk as a "dick" and called on Democratic Party members to "bring actual weapons to this bar fight" against Musk. The document suggests that Garcia's rhetoric constitutes an attempt to incite violence against a federal employee, and criticizes Democratic Party leadership for not condemning these statements. The resolution formally censures Garcia, requiring him to present himself in the well of the House of Representatives for a public reading of the censure by the Speaker, which is a formal method of publicly reprimanding a member of Congress for misconduct.
