Congressman Garcia Donates Salary To Blue Star Ranch
Congressman Mike Garcia (R, CA-25) donated his monthly salary to Blue Star Ranch, a Newhall-based non-profit that assists veterans who suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) through equine-assisted therapy.
On Tuesday, Congressman Mike Garcia presented a personal monthly salary donation to the Blue Star Ranch, a Newhall mental health non-profit that works with veterans who suffer from PTSD and their families through equine-assisted therapy, according to a statement from Garcia’s office.
“Our veterans and their families make incredible sacrifices for our nation,” Garcia said in a statement issued Tuesday. “For many, it doesn’t end when they return home. Too many of our heroes suffer from wounds we can’t see, and we must do everything we can to make sure they get the help they need and deserve.”
