Today, Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost (FL-10) released a statement following the outrageous, racially motivated attacks against Haitian people living in the United States by top GOP leaders, including VP nominee JD Vance, which have been debunked by Vance’s own home state of Ohio.
In a release from the Congressman’s office, Representative Frost stated, “I am deeply proud to represent one of the largest Haitian communities across the United States in my hometown of Central Florida. Haitian Americans and folks of Haitian descent are our neighbors, family, friends, loved ones, and valued members of our communities. JD Vance and GOP leaders’ racially motivated attacks against Haitian people are disgusting, bigoted, and based on flat-out lies.
“That top Republican leaders in Congress and across the nation would bolster these lies online and attempt to frighten the American public to gain votes in the upcoming presidential election is disgusting – and proves that Republicans don’t give a damn about communities of color, they want to villainize us.
“Haitian migrants and Haitian Americans deserve leaders who will see them as human beings and will fight for them, not leaders who will cast them out when it benefits them.”
