María Elvira Salazar U.S. House of Representatives from Florida's 27th district | Official U.S. House Headshot
Rep. María Elvira Salazar, a U.S. Congress member representing Florida's 27th district, shared her views on recent political developments through a series of tweets. Salazar, who has been serving in Congress since 2021 after replacing Donna Shalala, expressed her support for diplomatic efforts and actions taken by President Trump and other officials.
On March 11, 2025, Rep. Salazar commended President Trump, Secretary Rubio, and National Security Advisor Michael G. Waltz for their diplomatic achievements with Ukraine. She stated "I applaud President Trump, @SecRubio, and NSA @MichaelGWaltz for reaching a deal with Ukraine and taking one big step towards peace between them and Russia." She emphasized the importance of leadership in this context.
In another tweet posted shortly after, she reiterated her approval in Spanish: "Aplaudo al presidente Trump, al @SecRubio y al asesor de Seguridad Nacional @MichaelGWaltz por llegar a un acuerdo con Ucrania y dar un gran paso hacia la paz con Rusia." This reflects her bilingual communication approach to reach a broader audience.
Later that day, Salazar addressed issues related to antisemitism on university campuses. She voiced her support for measures against such acts by stating "If you attack Jewish students, lock down buildings, or destroy property and violate the terms of your visa, you don’t belong here!" This statement aligns with her stance against violence and discrimination.
