Born to civil rights leaders Rev. Jesse Jackson and Jacqueline Jackson, the fight for underrepresented people runs in Congressman Jackson's blood. He has long been an advocate for marginalized communities using his platform to fight for equity and civil rights.
He holds a Bachelor's Degree in Business from North Carolina Agricultural & Technical University and a Master of Business Administration from Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Business. Jackson has launched several telecom, distribution, and construction businesses. He has also taught finance and entrepreneurship at Chicago City Colleges and was a business professor at Chicago State University.
Rep. Jackson represents Illinois' First Congressional District. He is dedicated to working with his colleagues to pass meaningful legislation that will benefit the people of IL-01 and the nation as a whole. Rep. Jackson has worked closely with J Street during his time on Capitol Hill and we are thrilled to partner with him to support his re-election.
