Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, U.S. Congresswoman representing Florida’s 25th district since 2005, posted a series of statements on February 3, 2026, addressing her opposition to a government funding package and concerns about immigration policy.

In her first post at 21:27 UTC, Wasserman Schultz stated: “I voted against today’s government funding package on the House floor because there are tens of thousands of law-abiding people in my district who Trump’s ICE and CBP endanger every day.” She also provided a link for readers to access her full statement.

Later that evening at 22:29 UTC, she addressed Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and its impact on immigrants: “Republicans’ assault on TPS would criminalize hundreds of thousands of lawful immigrants overnight. It harms our economy, healthcare, childcare & more. I’m glad a federal judge ruled to protect TPS for Haiti, but the fight isn’t over. I’ll keep working to protect our community.”

At 23:02 UTC, Wasserman Schultz shared information about an upcoming event in her district with the message: “FL-25 February Town Hall”.

Wasserman Schultz has represented Florida’s 25th congressional district since replacing Peter Deutsch in 2005. Before serving in Congress, she was a member of the Florida Senate from 2000 to 2004 and served in the Florida House of Representatives from 1992 to 2000. Born in Queens, New York in 1966 and currently residing in Weston, she holds a BA from the University of Florida (source).
