A young man in a perpetual hurry, Jared Moskowitz has been in public life for 15 years, and heโs only 40. Politics has always been in his blood. Born in Coral Springs, Moskowitz grew up in a political householdโhis father was a big fundraiser for the Democratic partyโand he remembers that Jesse Jackson was the first politician he ever met and that Bill and Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden were in his familyโs home. Moskowitz, a graduate of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, earned his bachelorโs degree in political science at George Washington and his law degree from Nova Southeastern. He soon jumped into the political waters, interning for Vice President Al Gore and serving as an elector for then-candidate Barack Obama in 2008. A six-year tenure on the Parkland City Commission came next, and then Moskowitz won his seat in Floridaโs House of Representatives, which he held from 2012 to 2019. He resigned in order to be appointed to his Emergency Management role under Gov. Ron DeSantisโan unlikely ally from across the political aisle. Soon after COVID-19 struck, the new Emergency Management director made some bold moves: For example, he took on the powerful 3M company to secure more masks for Florida, trolling 3M on Twitter. Moskowitzโs intrepid, independent streak earned even greater visibility once the vaccines became available, when he bucked guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in order to prioritize seniors in the retiree-heavy state. When SFBW caught up with him, he didnโt hold back.
