Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson proudly represents Florida’s 24th Congressional District. It is one of the most ethnically and culturally diverse districts in the nation and includes parts of northwest Miami-Dade and southern Broward counties.
Recognizing her record of service and productivity, in 2010 voters overwhelmingly elected her to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives. As a former educator, elementary school principal, community leader, school board member, state legislator, and founder of the 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project, Congresswoman Wilson earned a reputation as a “Voice for the Voiceless.” Her tenure in Congress, now in its fourth term, also has been marked by her signature spirit of unrelenting advocacy on behalf of the less fortunate.
The U.S. labor force is a pillar of our nation’s strength. Congresswoman Wilson believes that we must protect and advance the rights, protections, and benefits our labor force needs to work with dignity and create better lives for themselves and their families.
As Ranking Member of the House Education and the Workforce Committee’s Subcommittee on Workforce Protections, she has been an outspoken advocate for expanded labor rights and worker protections.
