Demings had first entered news headlines during then-president Donald Trump‘s impeachment trial in 2020. She was also short-listed for Biden’s Vice President last summer.

The congresswoman was also a key voice during the George Floyd protests last year.

Other than Demings, Rep. Stephanie Murphy (D-Florida) is also reportedly considering a Senate run.
