“Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress and working together is success”. "Henry Ford"

Felix Garcia’s roots run deep in Passaic County. He resided in Paterson for over 40 years and continues to reside in Passaic County as a resident of Wayne. He is proud to be a Latino-American and just as his family migrated from Puerto Rico to Paterson he truly relates to the struggle all immigrants make to reach a better life for themselves and their families. He wants to assist people from all ethnic backgrounds whether from Latino to Arabic to African American to Asian to European descent.

Felix can be measured by his genuine and caring behavior that has a long history of engaging with the people of our communities. He has a long history of building personal relationships in every community which is one of Felix’s strongest traits. He enjoys engaging in conversations with people from all backgrounds and understands that diversity is the real strength of our county. He travels through communities meeting wonderful people that have real concerns about issues such as gangs, illegal drug activity and other issues that affect our future. He will deliver on his promise to engage the communities personally on a regular basis to develop solutions to the specific issues of each and every community within Passaic County. He believes in equal representation of all communities and he commits to equal opportunity by putting these words into action.

We all need to be united and put our greatest asset to work. As Henry Ford once said, “Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress and working together is success”.

We must not allow ourselves to be insulted by leaders that only pay attention during election cycles. Diversity is the fabric of our communities that makes Passaic County unique and is a signal of our strength. Felix understands this best and is committed to making this the pillar of which we will build upon.
