“More than three decades after the tragic AMIA Jewish Center bombing, and there’s still no justice for the 85 victims, the hundreds of injured, and countless people who were traumatized by this attack,” said Wasserman Schultz. “With antisemitism skyrocketing around the world, this gruesome attack on Argentina’s thriving Jewish community cannot go unanswered. Congressmen Diaz-Balart, Espaillat, Gonzales, and I are all proud to honor the victims of this attack and keep up the vital pursuit of justice for their loved ones.” Read more »
“Trump and Ron DeSantis have exploited legal ambiguity around this Everglades internment camp to avoid any scrutiny of abuses there,” said Wasserman Schultz. “Our bill would shut down this atrocity, strengthen oversight of detention facilities nationwide, and mandate public reporting on costs, conditions, and the treatment of detainees at this detention site, as well as report on any harms to the environment and nearby tribal lands. The public deserves the full truth about what’s happening in and around this facility and they deserve accountability for any laws broken.” Read more »

"You are required to seek our approval," Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., the ranking member of the VA appropriations subcommittee, told Collins. "You were a member of Congress. You're aware of that, and you have not done that. You still owe us answers on why you sent a notification instead of a reprogramming [request]. You didn't send us a plan. We're asking you for a plan. A two-page notification with one briefing does not give us any real information on what exactly you'll be doing with these funds." Read more »
"In his first term, President Trump recklessly withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) without a replacement, or even a concept of a plan of how he would secure a more favorable deal. Now, as he attempts to negotiate an end to the Iranian nuclear threat, I am deeply concerned by Trump’s own contradictory statements indicating that he would accept some level of uranium enrichment, allow Iran to maintain a stockpile of nuclear material in the country, or ignore Iran’s rampant sponsorship of global terrorism.
