Joan Esposito is joined by Tim Murphy, national correspondent at Mother Jones, who discussed Maxwell Frost, the 28-year-old second-term congressman from Florida. Frost, known for his activism in gun control and racial justice, aims to bring protest politics into Congress. Murphy spent a full day with Frost, observing his busy schedule and his efforts to make his voice heard. Frost's unique background includes working for the ACLU and organizing political campaigns. Despite being young, he has gained respect from colleagues and has been active in various protests and initiatives. The conversation also touches on the potential for younger, more diverse leadership in politics.
