As we continue to celebrate Hispanic Heritage month we bring you the story of a man who made history in California.
"I mainly told myself I'm completely stubborn. I put all my eggs in this one basket, which is being an attorney, that is my life's dream, and I have to see it all the way through or die trying."
"The little bed of a Chevy S-10 along with other six gentlemen. We were just placed next to each other like sardines. That is an experience that I will never ever forget. I think we were in the vehicle for close to three hours. Four-to-five of us passed out. The two-to-three that remained. Still, continuously we were praying out loud to make it out alive," said Garcia.
"I got ahold of the California legislature, and we started talking. We put forth another piece of legislature that ultimately became law in 2016. That allows all undocumented professionals in California to be licensed," Garcia said.
