U.S. Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who represents Florida’s 25th district, recently highlighted several issues and events on her social media accounts, including a local art competition winner, tax policy impacts on families, and concerns about conditions at an ICE facility.
On April 14, 2026, Wasserman Schultz congratulated the winner of her district’s congressional art competition by posting: “Congrats to FL-25’s 2026 Congressional Art Competition winner Sofia Espana, a 12th grader from Everglades High School! Her piece “Breaking the Gilded Seal” will hang in the U.S. Capitol alongside winners from across the country!
Thanks to the artists who showcased their work.”
The following day, on April 15, she commented on tax policy and its effects on working families: “On Tax Day, working families get 65% less in refunds than Trump promised. Instead of relief, we’re hit with tariff taxes that cost each family over $1,700.
Republicans gifted billionaires massive tax breaks but made life more expensive for everyone else.”
Later that same day, she addressed conditions at an immigration detention center in Florida: “America deserves the truth about what ICE is doing at the Everglades internment camp. This intentional cruelty is an insult to the Constitution and we must shut it down.
I took to the House floor to share what I saw there: https://t.co/3WKchQWCJs“
Wasserman Schultz has served in Congress since 2005 after replacing Peter Deutsch. Before her tenure in Washington D.C., she served in both chambers of Florida’s legislature—first as a member of the Florida House of Representatives from 1992 to 2000 and then as a state senator from 2000 to 2004. She was born in Queens, New York in 1966 and currently resides in Weston. Wasserman Schultz earned her BA from the University of Florida in 1988.
