Maxwell Frost, the first Gen Z member of Congress, opens up to Vogue about his decision to run for office, the realities of running a campaign as a working-class citizen, and more.
Maxwell Frost has a stomachache. Or at least that’s the charmingly unguarded reason the 26-year-old Florida congressman has given me for his tardiness. I am sitting at Orlando’s oldest diner, the College Park Café, with his even younger campaign coordinator, Rayanne Anid, 23, on a gray, muggy day. It’s the week between Christmas and New Year’s, when most people are still hiding out in their pajamas, so we’re all permitted a little leeway when it comes to punctuality.
Anid previously managed social media for March for Our Lives—a youth-led organization established in the wake of the Parkland, Florida, shooting in 2018—and Frost worked for the group for two years. When he announced he was running for Congress in 2021, he tapped several former colleagues for his campaign; for many, it would be their first. “I was still finishing up at UCF,” says Anid about those early days on the campaign, stunned by her beginner’s luck.
