Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov
Why Democrats Need to Focus On the Economy (feat. Rep. Jared Moskowitz)
25 Apr 2025
Jessica is joined by Florida Congressman Jared Moskowitz for a candid, fiery, and unexpectedly funny conversation about the state of American politics—from legislative wins to messaging missteps. They dive into his bipartisan work with Rep. Byron Donalds to reform FEMA, efforts to expand the Child Tax Credit, and opposition to Pentagon research cuts. Moskowitz also reflects on the FSU shooting and how the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Act became a national reform model. Then, Jess and Jared unload on Democrats’ fixation with “20% issues,” their weak economic messaging, and how the GOP keeps outplaying them. Moskowitz drops truth bombs on media distractions, misallocated campaign dollars, and why the next generation of public servants might want to study PR, not poli-sci.

Welcome to Raging Moderates. I'm Jessica Tarlow. And today we're joined by Florida Congressman Representative Jared Moskowitz. Congressman Moskowitz has recently made headlines for his efforts to expand the requirements of the child tax credit under a new bill, the American Family Act, and has also teamed up with Republican Congressman Byron Donalds to improve the effectiveness of FEMA.
Along with this, the congressman has been vocal in his disagreement with the 57% cuts made to the Pentagon's congressionally directed medical research programs after the continuing resolution went into effect. Congressman Moskowitz, welcome to the show.

Well, you're going to tell me. I take the pressure off myself and I invite people on to tell me what you're raging about.
Fair. I like that.
