On May 8, 2025, Wasserman Schultz criticized the dismissal of FEMA’s chief shortly before hurricane season.

Later that same day, Wasserman Schultz expressed strong support for Carla Hayden amid news of her firing from the Library of Congress. She remarked that “Loved and respected by all, Carla Hayden’s Library of Congress is ‘open to all.’ But a qualified guardian of truth and national treasures like her is a threat to Trump’s mendacious corruption.” She further pledged to advocate for Congressional measures to safeguard such positions from political bias.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz was born in Queens, New York in 1966 and currently resides in Weston. She holds a BA from the University of Florida.
