Here is a #Florida Man you'll hear more about soon.

Frost has roots in a broad swath of American life: His parents, who adopted Frost at birth, are a Cuban American woman and a white man from Kansas. His birth parents were a Lebanese Puerto Rican woman and a Haitian man.

Frost, who is Black, spoke both English and Spanish at home, and he capitalized on his multicultural upbringing to campaign in a district that’s as diverse as his own origins.

Still, Frost stands out for a resume that doesn’t match his age.

He’s been politically active for a decade, mainly campaigning against gun violence and for abortion rights in organizations like March for Our Lives and the American Civil Liberties Union.

“Maxwell is a very ambitious and incredibly special person, a special candidate. I think he has a very bright future,” said Victoria McGroary, the executive director of Bold PAC, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus campaign arm.

“He is both extremely young and energetic and has a decade of experience doing the work to bring about change,” added McGroary.
