U.S. Representative Lois Frankel, who represents Florida’s 22nd congressional district, recently highlighted a series of initiatives and issues on her social media accounts, including public safety technology upgrades in Palm Beach County, criticism of voting policies, and renewed efforts to address the gender pay gap.
On March 24, 2026, Frankel announced her participation in a local event alongside law enforcement: “Proud to join @WestPalmPD to unveil new, cutting-edge technology I secured funding for to keep our community safe. These bomb squad robots & advanced X-ray tools help protect officers and speed up response to threats. Keeping Palm Beach County safe is a top priority.” The unveiling of these technologies underscores ongoing efforts by local officials to enhance public safety infrastructure.
Later that day, Frankel commented on election policy debates: “As a reminder: this is the same guy who wants to outlaw mail-in-ballots. Rules for thee, but not for me.” Her remarks referenced ongoing discussions about voting rights and access.
On March 26, 2026, Frankel addressed workplace equity: “I reintroduced a resolution recognizing today as #EqualPayDay to mark how far into the year women must work to earn what men earned in 2025 alone. For the second year in a row, the gender pay gap has widened. I’m fighting for equal pay and an economy that works for women.”
Frankel has represented Florida’s 22nd District since 2013 after serving in the Florida House of Representatives from 1986 through 2002. She was born in New York City in 1948 and currently resides in West Palm Beach at age 74. Frankel holds degrees from Boston University (BA) and Georgetown University (JD).
