Foxx Demanded That Rep. Maxwell Frost's Remarks On Student Debt Be Stricken From The Congressional Record. According to The Hill, during a May 2023 floor debate on student loan forgiveness, Rep. Maxwell Frost argued, "'If we legislated using the logic that you bring to this issue today, women and Black folks wouldn't have the right to vote because it would be unfair to those who never got to vote before them.'" Foxx responded by demanding, "'I demand his words be taken down,'" forcing Frost to withdraw his remarks. [Hill, 5/24/23]
