Congressman Jared Moskowitz, who represents Florida’s 23rd district in the U.S. Congress, has recently posted a series of statements on social media addressing issues ranging from international humanitarian aid to domestic gun violence and healthcare policy.
On July 29, 2025, Moskowitz commented on the ongoing crisis in Gaza: “As I have always said, you can provide humanitarian aid to the people in Gaza while securing the release of the hostages and defeating Hamas. The current situation is unacceptable and more urgent action must be taken.”
Later that same day, Moskowitz addressed concerns about public safety programs related to gun violence, referencing his personal connection to Parkland: “My hometown of Parkland was devastated by gun violence. There’s no good justification for axing programs which law enforcement groups say have helped meaningfully reduce gun-related homicides. This decision is going to make communities less safe.”
On July 30, 2025, he marked the anniversary of two major federal health programs: “It’s been 60 years since Medicare and Medicaid were created. Today, millions of Americans rely on these programs, including 90,000 Floridians in my district alone who depend on Medicaid for lifesaving healthcare. I will always vote against any cuts to these critical benefits.”
Moskowitz has served as a member of Congress since 2023 after succeeding Ted Deutch. He previously held roles in both the Florida House of Representatives and Broward County Commission. Born in Coral Springs in 1980 and currently residing in Parkland, Moskowitz has cited his community’s experiences with gun violence as influential to his legislative priorities. He holds degrees from George Washington University and Nova Southeastern University.
