In Florida, Wasserman Schultz sparks a debate over what representation means in diverse districts

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz is running for reelection to Congress in a new district after Republicans reshaped Florida's congressional map, requiring her to cross from her Fort Lauderdale exurb into an area of Broward County. This move has sparked debate among critics who argue it represents an erasure of history and threatens Black representation. The redrawings followed U.S. Supreme Court decisions that affected the Voting Rights Act provisions.
