The Ageless Agenda: A Conversation with Congressman Maxwell Frost

The majority of youth in America are not on board for the new extremist Republican agenda. They believe in reproductive rights, and that the climate is in crisis. They’re against book banning and propaganda education. They’re majority pro-LGBTQ, pro-union, pro-health care, pro-living wage and pro-common sense gun legislation, and the Republican party offer them none of that. GenZ might technically still be new to politics, with the oldest member of the generation turning 26 this year, but they know who they are and what they want. Our youth is also looking around at everything from our legislation to our politicians and not seeing themselves reflected, and that hurts with turnout and engagement. Which is why our guest today is so important. Maxwell Frost is not only the first member of GenZ to be elected to Congress, he’s been elected to represent Florida. So as he looks to, and represents the future of our government and country, he hails from a state that’s currently working overtime to take us to the past. Join me for an amazing, hopeful, proactive conversation from someone who has fresh eyes on our old system.
