Jack Schlossberg, JFK’s grandson, running for Congress

(CNN, KYMA) - There may soon be another Kennedy in Washington, D.C. as Jack Schlossberg announced he's running for Congress.

He is the grandson of former President John F. Kennedy.

Schlossberg is running to replace the retiring Congressman Jerry Nadler, who represents New York's 12th Congressional District.

In a video announcing his campaign, the Democrat focused on affordability while criticizing President Donald Trump.

He could be facing a rather crowded field of challengers, including former Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney and Cameron Kasky, who is a survivor of the Parkland High School shooting.
