Currently representing Florida\u2019s 25th Congressional District, Wasserman Schultz\u00a0announced the move in a video statement posted to X with a poster of former President Barack Obama visible in the background. She stated in the social media post that she intends to \u201c<\/span>continue to use my seniority in Washington to make Broward a safer, less expensive place to live, raise a family, and retire.\u201d (RELATED: <\/strong><\/span>Jeb Bush Rips Wasserman Schultz\u2019s \u2018Terrible Judgment\u2019 In House IT Scandal)<\/strong>
<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve fought for the people of Broward County my whole adult life, and you\u2019ve always been able to count on me to deliver results for our community,\u201d Wasserman Schultz said in a news release. \u201cAnd I\u2019ve waged these battles when our values were on the line, all while still raising a family, beating cancer, and answering President Barack Obama\u2019s call to lead our national party.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Wasserman Schultz is running in the heavily Democratic Broward County after state Republicans\u2019 mid-decade redistricting made her current district more favorable to the GOP, Politico reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cDebbie Wasserman Schultz is abandoning her home district because she knows she was headed for defeat in a seat President Trump won by double digits,\u201d National Republican Congressional Committee Spokeswoman Maureen O\u2019Toole said Friday in a statement provided to the Daily Caller News Foundation. \u201cInstead of facing voters after years of backing Democrats\u2019 failed agenda, Wasserman Schultz is running scared and handing Republicans a prime pickup opportunity.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Former Democratic Florida Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick had previously represented the state\u2019s 20th Congressional District before abruptly resigning from Congress in April after being found guilty of multiple ethics violations over campaign finance laws. The House seat has long <\/span>been regarded as a stronghold for black representation in the state, according to WUSF.<\/p>\n

The newly redrawn 20th district was 45% black at the 2020 Census, according to data from Dave\u2019s Redistricting App.<\/p>\n

Some black candidates and Democratic Party leaders in the district have argued that a well-funded white Democrat entering the congressional race could further diminish black political power, The Miami Herald reported on May 12.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In July 2016, Wasserman Schultz announced that she would step down Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair <\/span>after leaked internal DNC emails revealed officials had shown overt favoritism toward Hillary Clinton during her primary contest with Bernie Sanders, The Guardian reported.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
