“The residents of District 20 deserve transparency, engagement, and genuine commitment to listening,” the caucus continued. “Building trust with Black leaders and constituents should be paramount for anyone seeking to represent a majority-Black district. Unfortunately, the actions taken by Congresswoman Wasserman Schultz suggest a failure to prioritize these essential values, perpetuating a narrative of performative allyship rather than meaningful connection.”

Wasserman Schultz also faced criticism for her move beyond Florida. Nina Turner, a former Democratic Ohio state senator and congressional candidate, declared: “Time to retire her. Where are you DNC? Her run illustrates her clear disregard and disrespect for the Black community, especially in this moment. This is just as bad as what the GOP is doing across the country.”

Mason Pressler, a national committeeman for Young Democrats of Michigan, said that “as progressives field Black candidates for majority-Black seats (PA-03, MO-01, MI-13, etc.), establishment Democrats like DWS are showing their true colors when it comes to protecting black representation. They don’t care, and voters must reject this at the primary ballot box.”

The DNC/Democratic party must be dismantled if we are to have any hope or this will keep happening over and over again as fascism cements itself.
