The median household income is $81,071 — more than double the $37,585 national median — with a median property value of $416,500 and median rent of $1,876. Poverty is relatively low at 8% (vs. 12.4% nationally), homeownership is 71.7%, and 38.4% of adults hold a bachelor's degree.

Voted nay on H.R. 7147 (Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2026 (March 2026)) on 2026-03-27: Frankel voted nay on DHS funding and released a statement: 'The proposed legislation provides billions more for ICE without a single meaningful reform or safeguard. At a time when this agency has become out of control, we cannot simply rubber-stamp more funding.' She also co-sponsored a resolution to impeach DHS Secretary Kristi Noem for 'grave abuses of power.' Her district's 30.9% foreign-born population makes ICE funding a core constituent concern. She has been among the most vocal House Democrats on ICE accountability.

Voted yea on H.Con.Res. 35 (Iran War Powers Resolution (March 2026)) on 2026-03-05: Frankel voted yea on a bipartisan resolution to terminate unauthorized U.S. military operations in Iran. She released a statement: 'Let me be clear: the Iranian regime and its support for terrorist proxies have wreaked havoc across the region — but war with Iran requires a vote of Congress.' The vote placed her in the Democratic mainstream (212 yea, most Democrats supporting), consistent with congressional war powers authority while maintaining her hawkish posture on the Iranian regime itself.

Voted yea on H.Res. 845 (Censuring Representative Rashida Tlaib of Michigan) on 2023-11-07: Frankel was one of only 22 House Democrats to join Republicans in censuring Rep. Rashida Tlaib — the only Palestinian American in Congress — over her comments on the Israel-Hamas war. Florida Democrats who voted to censure Tlaib received nearly $300K from pro-Israel lobbying groups. Frankel's vote led her to quietly quit the Congressional Progressive Caucus within two weeks, ending a seven-year membership. The censure passed 234-188. This vote directly aligned with her top donor AIPAC ($371,164) and was fundamentally incompatible with her Progressive Caucus membership — crystallizing the donor-vs-progressive tension in her political identity.

Voted yea on H.R. 8034 (National Security Supplemental (Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan — April 2024)) on 2024-04-20: Frankel voted yea on the full $95 billion foreign aid package including $26 billion in military aid to Israel, $61 billion for Ukraine, and $9 billion in worldwide humanitarian assistance. She released a statement saying the package 'reinforces our steadfast commitment to our allies, our own national security, and to democracy around the world.' The package also included $400 million for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) that funds security for synagogues and religious institutions — a priority for her district with significant Jewish communities. AIPAC supported the package. Frankel voted yea on both the standalone partisan Israel bill and the comprehensive bipartisan package.

Voted yea on H.R. 7217 (Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act (Standalone GOP bill, February 2024)) on 2024-02-06: Frankel was one of only 46 House Democrats to vote with Republicans on the $17.6 billion standalone Israel aid bill — legislation that President Biden threatened to veto. The White House personally called Democrats to flip them against the bill. Frankel told Axios it was 'a very tough vote for most' but that 'overwhelmingly most Democrats support Israel.' Her top donor, AIPAC at $371,164 in 2023-2024, strongly supported the bill. Only 46 of 213 Democrats broke ranks. This vote is one of the clearest donor-aligned party defections in the 118th Congress.

Voted nay on H.R. 29 (Laken Riley Act (119th Congress)) on 2025-01-07: Frankel voted nay on mandatory ICE detention for undocumented immigrants accused of nonviolent crimes including shoplifting. She joined 159 Democrats in opposition while 48 Democrats — including fellow Florida Reps. Moskowitz and Wasserman Schultz — voted yea. The Florida GOP named and shamed her as one of 'Seven Shameless Florida Democrats' who voted against the bill. Her district is 30.9% foreign-born with 59,601 Haitian-language and 179,429 Spanish-language households. The vote was both party-aligned (majority of Democrats opposed) and constituent-aligned for an immigrant-rich district where detention and deportation directly affect communities.

Voted nay on H.R. 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) — House passage, May 2025 and July 2025) on 2025-07-03: Frankel voted nay on the GOP reconciliation bill projected to add $3.4 trillion to deficits and cut approximately $1 trillion from Medicaid and SNAP. The AFL-CIO opposed the bill, and Frankel earned a 92% AFL-CIO score for 2025 (97% lifetime). Her FL-22 district has 8% poverty, a median age of 46.1 with 20% of residents over 70 — meaning Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security are top-of-mind for her constituents. She voted nay on both the May 2025 House version and the July 2025 final passage. All 212 Democrats plus 2 Republicans voted nay. The vote was both party-aligned and constituent-aligned. She issued a statement opposing 'President Trump and Congressional Republicans' One Big Beautiful Bill.'
