Rep. Jared Moskowitz Denies Speculation About Leading FEMA Under Trump

The Florida Democrat reaffirms his commitment to Congress following reports of his potential consideration for a role in the Trump administration.

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) stated he has no plans to leave Congress after reports suggested he was a top contender to lead FEMA in President-elect Donald Trump's administration.
Moskowitz emphasized on social media that he is committed to running for re-election in Florida's 23rd District and that no official offer was made for the FEMA position.
The congressman previously served as Florida's emergency management director under Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, gaining bipartisan praise for his work during Hurricane Michael and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Moskowitz has recently engaged in bipartisan initiatives, including joining the Department of Government Efficiency Caucus, which aligns with a Trump administration effort to reduce government waste.
If Trump were to appoint Moskowitz, it could temporarily reduce the Democratic majority in the House, potentially impacting the balance of power in a closely divided chamber.
