Jared Moskowitz said he was concerned about the security of congressmen, regardless of political affiliations

The congressman said in a statement on X that he was informed about the “potential plot” on his life the day before the election, adding that the suspect in question had been arrested “not far” from his home.

Moskowitz beat his Republican opponent Joe Kauffman to keep his seat representing Florida’s 23rd congressional district.“He is a former felon who was in possession of a rifle, a suppressor, and body armor,” the statement said. “Found with him was a manifesto that, among other things, included antisemitic rhetoric and only my name on the ‘target’ list. There are many other details that I will not disclose as I do not want to interfere with an ongoing investigation.

Moskowitz is one of 13 members of a task force investigating the attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. The gunman, a 20-year-old kitchen worker named Thomas Matthew Cooks, was shot dead by a Secret Service sniper after he had“I understand the failures and importance of fixing the protection of our current and future Commander-in-Chief and Vice President,” Moskowitz said.
