in Washington and lost an application fee because his credit is “really bad.”
The 25-year-old progressive Democrat, who will receive a $174,000 salary as a congressman, says his score suffered as he accumulated debt running for office for a year and a half. Three months into his campaign, he said, he had to become a Uber driver to pay for bills and food. “This ain’t meant for people who don’t already have money,” Frost tweeted Thursday about his problems apartment hunting in Washington, one of the most expensive cities in the country.
His plight shows the challenge for young or otherwise struggling new members of Congress who are moving to an expensive city and may not have the financial means to secure housing before they start receiving their government salary.Sign up for NBC Philadelphia newsletters. Frost's campaign manager, Kevin Lata, said Friday that the congressman-elect has received more than 100 offers for temporary housing solutions as he continues his apartment search. He has also received public offers on Twitter from world-famous chef Jose Andres and Democratic Rep. Jimmy Gomez of California, who tweeted that he could crash on the sofa of the apartment he shares with Democratic Rep. Darren Soto of Florida.Frost recalled that Democratic Rep.

Poor baby! Must be a democrat. Already crying I'm sue your salary will help u pay your bills.
That's how genZ does it. Getting into debt and not paying it back 😉
The sad part is the FICO nonsense is only 8 years older than him, and has a deep history of racism. But he's certainly in a position to do something about it.
Perhaps this is why we need to bring back the military draft. We all are so soft and have it so easy now.
Hmm…it’s almost like cities with pretty much total control by democrats are really expensive to live in and not the utopias of accessibility that liberals say they are championing…weird.
Give him a few weeks. He'll be a Millionaire like SenSchumer SpeakerPelosi . It's the Democrat way.
180k job and no place to live. Sounds like a joke ? Must be sone section 8 government housing some place .
welcome to the real world little boy.
And your point…must ppl aren’t born with/silver spoon in their mouth so they fight & struggle to get where they are. Running a campaign can be costly & esp. when you’re not taking dark monies.This isn’t Frost 1st battle he’ll figure it out & slay the dragon. U’ve come too far.
Hahahahahahahhaha
must be a democrat.. introduce a law to outlaw credit reports
