Frederica S. Wilson

Overview

Frederica Wilson has served in the U.S. House representing Florida, bringing a progressive perspective to her legislative work. Her voting patterns show strong engagement with healthcare policy, where she has cast the most recorded votes among her policy areas. Her voting record demonstrates consistent opposition to Republican-led initiatives, as evidenced by her frequent 'nay' votes on passage and resolution votes during periods of divided government. She tends to support Democratic procedural motions and policy alternatives, including motions to recommit with instructions that typically propose Democratic amendments to Republican bills. Wilson's legislative focus appears concentrated on healthcare and budget matters, which together comprise the majority of her recorded votes. Her relatively low 'yea' percentages in areas like banking/finance, housing, and environment/energy suggest she opposed the specific legislation that came to the floor in those categories during the recorded period.
