Summary

A summary of the key points of this story verified across multiple sources.

Jared Moskowitz, a Florida Democrat and congressman, is a top candidate to lead FEMA in the incoming Trump administration. Notable for his prior role as Emergency Management director under Governor DeSantis, Moskowitz's moderate stance has led to a friendlier approach towards Trump compared to many of his Democratic peers.

While past criticism of Trump remains, Moskowitz's professional history in disaster response and disaster management makes him a serious contender for the FEMA role.
