The grandson of former President John F. Kennedy has reportedly taken a step towards a run for a New York City congressional seat.
According to an Axios report, Jack Schlossberg announced on Sunday that he has formed a congressional exploratory committee, the first step towards a run for the seat being vacated by retiring Representative Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y).
“Hey guys ? have formed an exploratory committee,” Schlossberg posted on X Sunday morning.
Schlossberg, 32, is the son of diplomat Caroline Kennedy and artist Edwin Schlossberg. He is the 35th president’s only grandson by his wife, Jackie Kennedy.
Schlossberg gained attention for his frequent postings on X, where he has targeted Republican officials, particularly his cousin, Health and Human Services Secretary (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“RFK LOSER is choking so badly LIVE,” Schlossberg posted just last week while his cousin testified during a congressional hearing.
“There’s only one Kennedy family — MINE !!” he wrote just before the hearing started.
Assemblyman Micah Lasher and non-profit leader Liam Elkind have also entered the race.
