Anthony David Weiner (/ˈwiːnər/ born September 4, 1964)[1] is an American politician and sex offender from the state of New York. ADemocrat, Weiner has served on the New York City Council and in the U.S. House of Representatives. He is known for his involvement in multiple sex scandals, one of which led to his resignation from the House and another of which became an issue in the2016 United States presidential election and led to Weiner's eventual incarceration.
After graduating from theState University of New York at Plattsburgh in 1985, Weiner joined the staff of then-U.S. RepresentativeChuck Schumer. In 1991, he was elected to represent the 48th district on the New York City Council. At age 27, Weiner became the youngest New York City councilmember in history. He served on the City Council from 1992 to 1998. Weiner was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives fromNew York's 9th congressional district in 1998 and served in the House from 1999 until his resignation in 2011. Weiner also ran formayor of New York City in 2005 and 2013, losing in the Democratic primary both times.
Weiner resigned from the House in June 2011 after it was revealed that he hadsent sexually suggestive photos of himself to various women. A second sexting scandal engulfed his 2013 campaign for New York City mayor. In September 2016, claims were published that Weiner had engaged in sexting with a 15-year-old girl from North Carolina; devices owned by Weiner were seized as part of an investigation into this incident. Information pertinent to theHillary Clinton email controversy was discovered on Weiner's laptop, leading FBI DirectorJames Comey to reopen his investigation into Clinton days before Clinton lost the 2016 presidential election toDonald Trump. Weiner later pleaded guilty to transferring obscene material to a minor and served more than a year in federal prison.
Weiner ran for New York City Council in the2nd district in 2025, finishing in fourth place in the Democratic primary and losing toHarvey Epstein.
Weiner was born inBrooklyn, New York. He is the middle son of Mort Weiner, a lawyer, and his wife, Frances (née Finkelstein), a public high school math teacher.[2][3] Weiner is Jewish.[4] He and his family lived for a time in thePark Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn. Weiner attended elementary school atP.S. 39 The Henry Bristow School.[5][6]
Weiner took theSpecialized High Schools Admissions Test, an examination used to determine admission to all but one of New York City'sspecialized high schools, and was admitted toBrooklyn Technical High School, from which he graduated in 1981.[7] He attended theState University of New York at Plattsburgh[8] and spent his junior year as an exchange student at theCollege of William & Mary, where he was friends with future comic and political commentatorJon Stewart.[9] Weiner's interests turned towards politics; he became active in student government and was named most effective student senator.[6]
After he received hisBachelor of Arts degree inpolitical science in 1985, Weiner joined the staff of then–United States Representative and currentSenatorCharles Schumer. He worked in Schumer'sWashington, D.C. office for three years, then transferred to the district office in Brooklyn in 1988, when Schumer encouraged him to become involved in local politics.[10]
After working for Schumer for six years, Weiner got his first chance at political office in 1991 when theNew York City Council was expanded from 35 to 51 seats. Weiner was considered a long-shot because he faced strong competition in the Democratic primary elections from two well-connected candidates. Weiner narrowly won the primary, besting Michael Garson by slightly more than 200 votes.[11] Controversy ensued in the last weeks of the campaign after Weiner's campaign anonymously spread leaflets around the district that had alleged ties between Cohen and the so-called "Jackson-Dinkins agenda"; the leaflets referred to theCrown Heights riots earlier in the year, after which white residents had seenJesse Jackson, who became notorious for his earlier remarks about New York City as "Hymietown", and then-mayorDavid Dinkins as having been beholden to the predominantly African-American rioters and therefore endangering whites.[12][13] Weiner prevailed in the general election.[11]
Weiner began serving on the City Council when he was 27 years of age, making him the youngest city councilmember in history.[14] Weiner served on the City Council from 1992 to 1998.[1] During his City Council tenure, Weiner initiated programs to addressquality of life concerns. He also started a program to put at-risk and troubled teens to work cleaning upgraffiti, and he backed development plans that helped revive the historicSheepshead Bay area.[3][15]
In 1998, Weiner ran forCongress fromNew York's 9th congressional district.[16] The heavily Democratic 9th district was represented by Weiner's mentor, Chuck Schumer, who opted to run for theU.S. Senate that year and prevailed.[17][11] Weiner narrowly won the Democratic primary election[16] and won by a wide margin in the general election.[18] He went on to serve in the House of Representatives until 2011,[1] when he resigned in the midst of a sexting scandal.[19] A special election was held on September 13, 2011 to replace him; Republican businessmanBob Turner defeated DemocratDavid Weprin in that election.[20]
Weiner was critical of the 2009Stupak-Pitts Amendment to theAffordable Care Act, which prohibited the use of taxpayer funds forabortion. Weiner called the amendment "unnecessary and divisive" and stated that it would prevent health insurers from offering abortion coverage regardless of whether an individual used federal funds to purchase an insurance plan.[21]
In April 2008, Weiner created thebi-partisan Congressional Middle ClassCaucus.[22] In June 2008, Weiner sponsored a bill to increase the number ofO-visas available to foreign fashion models, arguing that it would help boost the fashion industry in New York City.[23] He criticized UN diplomats for failing to pay parking tickets in New York City, claiming foreign nations owed $18,000,000 to the city.[24]
During the health care reform debates of 2009, Weiner advocated for a bill called theUnited States National Health Care Act, which would have expandedMedicare to all Americans, regardless of age.[25][26] He remarked that while 4% of Medicare funds go to overhead,[27] private insurers put 30% of their customer's money into profits and overhead instead of into health care.[28] In late July 2009, he secured a full House floor vote forsingle payer health care in exchange for not amendingAmerica's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009 in committeemark-up with a single-payer plan.[29]
When apublic health insurance option was being considered as part of America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009, Weiner said that it would help reduce costs, and he set up a website to push for the option.[28] He attracted widespread attention when described theRepublican Party as "a wholly owned subsidiary of the insurance industry, teaming up with a small group of Democrats to try to protect that industry".[30] In February 2010, he proclaimed to Congress that "every single Republican I have ever met in my entire life is a wholly owned subsidiary of the insurance industry."[31]
Weiner was the chief sponsor of the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking Act of 2009,[32][33] which made the selling of tobacco in violation of any state tax law a federalcrime, and effectively ended Internet tobacco smuggling by stopping shipments of cigarettes through theUnited States Postal Service. He claimed, "This new law will give states and localities a major revenue boost by cracking down on the illegal sale of tobacco", and added that "Every day we delay is another day that New York loses significant amounts of tax revenue and kids have easy access to tobacco products sold over the Internet."[33]
On July 29, 2010, Weiner criticized Republicans for opposing the9/11 Health and Compensation Act, which would provide for funds for sickfirst responders to the9/11 attacks on theWorld Trade Center. In a speech on the floor of the House, he accused Republicans of hiding behind procedural questions as an excuse to vote against the bill.[34]
In response to pressure from Weiner,YouTube removed some ofAnwar al-Awlaki's inflammatory videos from its website in November 2010.[35] Weiner voted against theTax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010. As a prominent Democratic opponent of the tax cut package passed by Congress, Weiner said Republicans had gotten the better of PresidentBarack Obama in the negotiations to reach an agreement on the $858 billion deal and said the Republicans turned out to be "better poker players" than Obama.[36]
In 2002, Weiner voiced strong criticism of the removal of theWorld Trade Center debris without investigating it to determine the causes of the collapses of Tower 1, 2 and 7.[37]
In 2002, Weiner voted to give PresidentGeorge W. Bush the authority to use military force againstIraq.[38] In May 2006, Weiner attempted to bar the Palestinian delegation from entering the United Nations. He added that the delegation "should start packing their little Palestinian terrorist bags", and went on to claim thatHuman Rights Watch,The New York Times, andAmnesty International are all biased againstIsrael.[39]
On July 29, 2007, Weiner and Rep.Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) objected to a $20-billion arms deal that theBush administration negotiated withSaudi Arabia because they didn't want to provide "sophisticated weapons to a country that they believe has not done enough to stop terrorism", noting that 15 of the 19hijackers in theSeptember 11 attacks were Saudis. Weiner made the announcement outside of the Saudi Arabian consulate inWashington, D.C., stating, "We need to send a crystal clear message to the Saudi Arabian government that their tacit approval of terrorism can't go unpunished." The two intended to use a provision of theArms Export Control Act to review the deal and pass a Joint Resolution of Disapproval.[40]
Weiner and several other members of Congress later criticized the Obama administration's proposal to sell over $60 billion in arms to Saudi Arabia. He said: "Saudi Arabia is not deserving of our aid, and by arming them with advanced American weaponry we are sending the wrong message", and described Saudi Arabia as having a "history of financing terrorism" and teaching "hatred of Christians and Jews" to its schoolchildren.[41]
In July 2008,The New York Times characterized Weiner as an intense and demanding boss who required constant contact from his staff, frequently yelled, and occasionally threw office furniture in anger. As a result of Weiner's actions, theTimes reported that he had one of the highest staff turnover rates of any member of Congress. Specifically, theTimes stated that Weiner had lost three chiefs of staff within an 18-month period. Weiner admitted he pushed his aides hard, but said that his speaking at a high decibel level was part of his background and style. Though some former employees were critical of his supervisory practices, others praised him for his intense involvement in constituent concerns and readiness to fight for New York City.[42]
A 2010 license plate check by theCapitol Hill newspaperRoll Call showed that Weiner's vehicles were among several owned by members of Congress that had unpaid tickets. Weiner's past due fines, which spanned three years and totaled more than $2,000, were among the highest uncovered byRoll Call and were paid in full shortly after publication of the article.[43][44] On June 13, 2011, theNew York Daily News reported that one of Weiner's vehicles, though it had been issued valid plates, was displaying expired plates that had been issued to another one of his vehicles.[45]
Weiner sought the Democratic nomination to run forNew York City mayor in 2005, vying against three other candidates. He had a three-part pitch to voters that included criticizing sitting MayorMichael Bloomberg for his top-down style of management and promising a more democratic approach; against "passivity in City Hall" and for getting more federal money for the city; and a series of ideas on how to get the city to work better.[2][46] He presented a book of 50 "Real Solutions" and among his policy proposals were fixes for the health care and educational systems.[2] One idea already in play was a neighborhood scrubbing-up program he dubbed "Weiner's Cleaners".[2]
Weiner started out last in many polls,[2] but gained ground in the final weeks of the campaign, coming in second. Initial election returns hadFernando Ferrer with 39.95% of the vote, just shy of the 40% required to avoid a runoff against Weiner, who had 28.82%, but Weiner conceded, citing the need for party unity and denying rumors that various high-ranking New York Democrats, such as SenatorChuck Schumer andNew York Attorney GeneralEliot Spitzer, had urged him to concede.Absentee ballots put Ferrer over the 40% mark in the officialprimary election returns.[47]
Weiner appeared to be a candidate for mayor again in 2009.[48] However, in May 2009, after theNew York City Council voted to extend term limits for Mayor Bloomberg, Weiner announced his decision not to run against the popular incumbent.[49] By July 2010, Weiner had raised $3.9 million for a potential campaign in the 2013 mayoral election, and was considered a leading contender in early polls.[50] According to theNew York City Campaign Finance Board website, as of the March 2013 filing deadline Weiner had raised over $5.1 million, the second most among registered mayoral candidates, behind onlyChristine Quinn.[51]
In an interview withThe New York Times Magazine published online on April 10, 2013, Weiner said he would like to "ask people to give me a second chance" and was considering a run for mayor. He added that, "it's now or maybe never for me."[52]
In an interview on April 11, Rep.Keith Ellison endorsed Weiner, saying that he would love to see him become mayor of New York.[53] Weiner announced his intent to run for mayor on aYouTube video on May 21, 2013.[54] Weiner's platform for candidacy was summarized in "Keys to the City: 64 Ideas to Keep New York City the Capital of the Middle Class".[55]
During his mayoral campaign, Weiner became the subject of new sexting allegations. He acknowledged on July 23, 2013 that he had sent sexual messages to at least three women in 2012.[56] Once this information became public, there were calls for Weiner to drop out of the mayoral race; however, Weiner opted to continue his campaign.[57][58] On July 27, 2013, Danny Kedem, Weiner's campaign chief, announced his resignation.[59] Following the new sexting scandal, Weiner lost his lead in a Democratic primary poll.[60]
On September 10, 2013, Weiner lost the Democratic mayoral primary, winning only 4.9% of the vote.[61]
In 2025, Weiner announced his candidacy in the2025 New York City Council election forDistrict 2.[62][63] He ran against New York State AssemblymanHarvey Epstein and three other Democrats (Allie Ryan, Andrea Gordillo, and Sarah Batchu). The district was represented by DemocratCarlina Rivera, who was term-limited.[64] On July 1, 2025, he lost the Democratic primary after being eliminated in the third round of ranked choice voting. Unofficial data indicate that he finished in fourth place with 10.3% of the vote.[65]
On May 27, 2011, Weiner used his publicTwitter account to send a link to a woman who was following him on the social media platform. The link contained a sexually explicit photograph of himself.[66][67] After several days of denying that he had posted the image,[68][69] Weiner held a press conference at which he admitted he had "exchanged messages and photos of an explicit nature with about six women over the last three years" and apologized for his earlier denials.[70][71] After an explicit photo was leaked through the Twitter account of a listener ofThe Opie & Anthony Show,[72] Weiner announced on June 16, 2011 that he would resign from Congress,[73][74] and he did so on June 21.[19]
A second sexting scandal began in July 2013, several months after Weiner had returned to politics in the New York City mayoral race. An entertainment website posted a lewd photo it obtained from a woman who stated that Weiner had sent her the photo in 2012, after he had left Congress. Weiner acknowledged that he was the man in the photo.[75] Weiner further acknowledged that he had sent sexual messages to at least three women in 2012.[56] After his resignation from Congress, Weiner had used the alias "Carlos Danger" to continue sending explicit photographs.[75] One recipient stated that Weiner described himself to her as “an argumentative, perpetually horny middle-aged man”.[76] On July 23, 2013, Weiner held a press conference with his wife,Huma Abedin, in which he announced that he would continue his campaign.[57][58] At the press conference, Weiner said, "I said that other texts and photos were likely to come out and today they have... I want to again say that I am very sorry to anyone who was on the receiving end of these messages and the disruption this has caused.”[77] Weiner went on to lose the 2013 Democratic mayoral primary.[61]
On August 28, 2016, theNew York Post reported that Weiner hadsexted a woman a picture of himself wearing briefs while he was lying in bed with his young son.[78][79][80]The New York Times reported the next day that Weiner and his wifeHuma Abedin intended to separate. Abedin announced her intention by stating, "After long and painful consideration and work on my marriage, I have made the decision to separate from my husband. Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what is best for our son, who is the light of our life. During this difficult time, I ask for respect for our privacy."[81]
In September 2016, claims were published that Weiner had engaged in sexting with a 15-year-old girl from North Carolina, and devices owned by Weiner were seized as part of an investigation into this incident.[82][83] Emails that were pertinent to theHillary Clinton email controversy were discovered on Weiner's laptop; this discovery prompted FBI DirectorJames Comey to reopen that investigation several days before the2016 US presidential election. Comey announced his decision in a letter to Congress.[83][84] An article byThe New York Times about the Comey letter was entitled, "Emails in Anthony Weiner Inquiry Jolt Hillary Clinton's Campaign".[85] Clinton, who went on to lose the 2016 election, later asserted that if the election had been held prior to the release of Comey's letter, she would have prevailed.[86] AnalystNate Silver opined that the Comey letter probably cost Clinton the election.[87] In 2017, Z. Byron Wolf of CNN wrote:
Anthony Weiner sexted a 15-year-old and Donald Trump won the White House. One didn’t cause the other, but several long-running narratives exploded together in a way that ultimately and in hindsight sent Hillary Clinton’s campaign floundering and gave Donald Trump’s new hope in the waning days of the election. There is an undeniable through-line between the investigation into Weiner’s proclivity to sending lewd message via text, on this occasion victimizing a teenage student, and Trump’s 2016 victory.[86]
On January 31, 2017,The Wall Street Journal reported that federal prosecutors were weighing whether or not to bringchild pornography charges against Weiner over the incident.[88][89] On May 19, 2017,The New York Times reported in its online edition that Weiner had surrendered to theFBI that morning. He pled guilty to a single charge of transferring obscene material to a minor.[90] Under the agreement, Weiner faced a sentence of 21 to 27 months in federal prison and would be required to register as asex offender. At his sentencing hearing on September 25, 2017, presiding judgeDenise Cote sentenced Weiner to 21 months in prison, beginning on November 6, 2017,[90] with an additional three years of supervision following his prison term.[91]
On November 6, 2017, Weiner reported toFederal Medical Center, Devens inAyer, Massachusetts to begin his 21-month sentence.[92] After getting about three months deducted from his sentence for good behavior,[93] Weiner was released from prison on February 17, 2019, and sent to a halfway house.[94][95] He was released from a halfway house on May 14, 2019.[96] Weiner is registered as a sex offender.[97][98]
In July 2011 (less than a month after he left Congress), Weiner created the consulting firm Woolf-Weiner Associates. He advised over a dozen companies that included electronic medical records providers andbiofuel firms. He worked withCovington & Burling, an international law firm. According to 2012 public disclosures, his work helped increase his combined family income to $496,000. Weiner argued that despite contacting members of Congress on behalf of his clients, his work did not meet the legal definition oflobbying.[99] This was based on the so-called "Daschle Loophole" in theLobbying Disclosure Act, which requires only those who spend more than 20% of their time lobbying to register as lobbyists.[100]
TheSunlight Foundation criticized Weiner for stealth lobbying and falling under the aforementioned "Daschle Loophole". The public never learned of his lobbying work until two years later, when his nondisclosure agreements expired.[101]
From July to September 2015, Weiner worked forMWW Group, aPR firm in New York City as a part-time consultant to serve on the company's board of advisors.[102]
On August 29, 2016, theNew York Daily News said it would no longer carry Weiner's columns, which included his writings on New York City politics. On the same day, television channelNY1 said Weiner would not be reprising his contributor role on any of its shows.[103]
Weiner served asCEO of IceStone, a Brooklyn-based kitchen-countertop company.[104][105] He left his role as CEO in August 2021, as the company transitioned to aworker-owned cooperative.[62]
After leaving IceStone, he began working forWABC radio, where he co-hosts a weekly live show withCurtis Sliwa and records a weekly podcast.[106][107][108]
In 2009, Weiner became engaged toHuma Abedin, a long-time personal aide toHillary Clinton,[109] and they married in July 2010, with former presidentBill Clinton officiating.[110] Abedin is a practicingMuslim ofIndian andPakistani descent.[111] In December 2011, Abedin gave birth to a son.[112]
In August 2016, Abedin announced that she was separating from Weiner.[81] In early 2017, Abedin announced her intent to file for divorce withsole physical custody of their son. On May 19, 2017, after he pleaded guilty to an obscenity charge, she filed for divorce.[113] Abedin and Weiner withdrew their divorce case from court in January 2018, saying they decided to settle the divorce privately in order to spare their six-year-old son further embarrassment.[114] Abedin and Weiner finalized their divorce in early 2025.[115]
Weiner's older brother, Seth, was 39 years old when he was killed by ahit-and-run driver in 2000.[5][6] His younger brother, Jason, is a chef and co-owner of several New York restaurants.[116]
Weiner is a lifelong fan of theNew York Mets andNew York Islanders.[117][118][119]
In 2013, Weiner and Abedin allowed filmmakers full access to his mayoral campaign. In 2016, the resulting documentary,Weiner, premiered at theSundance Film Festival.[120] In 2013, a production calledThe Weiner Monologues premiered at the Access Theater. Directed by Jonathan Harper Schlieman, the show was based on media coverage of Weiner's sexting scandal.[121]
In 2014, he had a cameo appearance in anAlpha House episode.[122] He also appeared in the 2015 filmSharknado 3: Oh Hell No!, in which he portrays a NASA executive.[123]

In 2005, U.S. health care spending increased 6.9 percent to almost $2.0 trillion, or $6,697 per person. The health care portion of gross domestic product (GDP) was 16.0 percent, slightly higher than the 15.9 percent share in 2004. This third consecutive year of slower health spending growth was largely driven by prescription drug expenditures. Spending for hospital and physician and clinical services grew at similar rates as they did in 2004.
