Today, we celebrate Haitian Flag Day and honor the strength, resilience, and history of the Haitian people. Haiti’s legacy of freedom continues to inspire the world, and South Florida is stronger because of the vibrant Haitian community that enriches our neighborhoods. Happy Haitian Flag Day!

Today marks the anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education, a landmark decision affirming that every child deserves equal access to education. We must continue the fight for equity, inclusion, and quality education for every child, regardless of race or zip code.

Seeing the Chibok girls graduate from the American University of Nigeria is a powerful reminder of survivor strength. For years, we supported survivors with rescue, trauma care, and education as they rebuilt their lives. Today, they are reclaiming their voices and stepping into their futures.

Whether in Washington or in the district, the work never stops for me. Serving the people of Florida's 24th Congressional District has been the work of my entire adult life. This is my footprint, and this is what I do, and my constituents know my commitment to them is unwavering.

Happy Founders’ Day to Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Incorporated!

I voted YES to extend ACA tax credits because American families deserve access to affordable health care. Period.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialJan 3(source)

The American people do not want another endless war. Congress must receive an immediate briefing and full oversight. The White House must seek congressional approval before any further military action.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialJan 3(source)

I will always stand with Venezuelan families in South Florida who have carried this pain for far too long. But let me be clear: the Administration did not seek congressional authorization for this military action, and we cannot allow this moment to turn into an endless war.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialJan 3(source)

Venezuela deserves a stable democratic future where human rights are protected and the Venezuelan people can finally live in freedom. Now comes the hard work of responsibly transitioning Venezuela toward legitimate institutions and free and fair elections that Venezuelans can trust.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialJan 3(source)

🧵The detention of Nicolás Maduro is a significant moment for our hemisphere. For years, the Venezuelan people have endured repression and hardship under his brutal rule.

I want to wish our entire community a Happy New Year! May this year bring you love, joy, and good health. I am wishing you all the best in 2026. 🎆

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 30(source)

2025 was a busy year for me, but I am more committed than ever before to continue fighting for you in 2026!

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 26(source)

As we honor the principles of Kwanzaa, let us reflect on the strength of family, community, and shared values that guide us forward. Happy Kwanzaa!

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 25(source)

I want to wish our entire community a very Merry Christmas! 🎄 Wishing you joy, peace, and lots of warm moments with the people you love.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 24(source)

I want to wish everyone across South Florida a Feliz Nochebuena and a Happy Christmas Eve! I hope your evening is filled with joy, love, and time with those you cherish.🎄

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 23(source)

As 2025 comes to a close, I’m proud of the progress we made and the wins we delivered together. These are trying times, but I will always fight for you, and that work doesn’t stop for a second.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 23(source)

The threats by the White House to withhold funding from the Smithsonian are just about whitewashing our history. All Americans must unite to protect our history and protect the Smithsonian’s independence to ensure unbiased content across its institutions.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 18(source)

The Speaker must allow members to vote on an extension of the affordable healthcare tax credits TODAY! NO EXCUSES! Premiums are skyrockets and families cannot wait for a vote on this.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 17(source)

Water affects every community. We need to push bipartisan legislation that protects families from flooding, strengthens our water supply, restores critical ecosystems, and helps communities prepare for drought and extreme weather. This is how Congress delivers real results.

Rep. Frederica Wilson@repwilson.bsky.socialDec 17(source)

Congress must stay in session until we work to save healthcare. A majority of the House now supports extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits. The Speaker must bring this bill up for a vote right away, not wait until January.
