Jack Schlossberg is the only grandson of the late U.S. Pres. John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.In 2026 he ran in the Democratic primary as a candidate for Congress from New York City and lost.
In February 2026, Schlossberg’s campaign picked up a key endorsement when former Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi threw her support to the Schlossberg campaign. But an early lead in the crowded race evaporated amid reports of chaos and staff turnover in the campaign and a sense that Schlossberg lacked the needed political experience to win the race. His messaging was sometimes criticized as generic and failing to connect with voters. Schlossberg wound up finishing third behind Democratic primary winner Micah Lasher, who is expected to win the seat in the reliably Democratic district in the November general election.
