Although she started out in education, she’s been an elected official for a quarter century. Wilson’s first elected position came in 1992 when she left a post as principal of Miami Gardens’ Skyway Elementary School to join the Miami-Dade School Board. While there, she started an in-school mentoring program for disadvantaged youth called 5000 Role Models of Excellence. The deceased soldier at the center of the Trump phone call controversy, Sgt. La David Johnson, was a graduate of the program. Indeed, Wilson was in the car with Johnson’s widow when Trump made the call because she had known the deceased since his childhood.

While dealing with the Trump controversy, Wilson is also pushing for reforms at nursing homes. When The Rehabilitation Center at Hollywood Hills, a nursing home in Wilson’s district, lost power after Hurricane Irma, 14 people died. Wilson has been at the forefront of state and federal legislators calling for requirements that nursing homes have backup generators that can power air conditioning.
