Florida Democrat Frederica Wilson to retire from the House

Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.), a 16-year veteran of Capitol Hill, will not seek reelection in November, the Miami Herald reported Friday morning, becoming the 30th House Democrat from the 119th Congress who won’t be joining the 120th.
Wilson is expected to make her formal announcement Friday at an event in her South Florida district, where local officials are honoring her long service to the community by naming a street after her.

The news of Wilson’s retirement came less than a month after Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis adopted a new House map for the 2026 midterms as part of the larger GOP campaign, spearheaded by President Trump, to eliminate Democratic districts in red states around the country.
The new Florida map is expected to flip several Democratic seats to the Republicans in the midterms. But Wilson’s 24th District remains deeply blue, and she told the Herald that she had delayed her announcement to leave Congress to prevent GOP legislators from disenfranchising voters in the region.

Ah yes this chick, she is the one who tried to make Trump look bad when he called a mother to offer condolences after her son was killed while serving in the military.
She is scum just like most of the rest of them.

anyone want to take a wager a graphic of her district will not find its way into the leftist media to accompany this story? This post was edited on 5/29/26 at 11:36 am

Pursuing her dream of Cowboy Clown College? She's a little long in the tooth but I admire the chutzpah.

She's going to get replaced with a white or Hispanic Democrat who's IQ is above room temperature.

Obviously the street where prostitutes hang out.

while good new in and of itself, i wish all 373 non-freshman reps would retire (term limit of 2 terms)
the longer they are in washington, the more they become washington.....

That cowboy hat is cultural appropriation.

It’s perfectly fine so long as one has that “D” behind their name.
AOC demonstrated this once again just recently.
