Jeff Jackson

Attorney General North Carolina Democrat
Open Seat2024
Congressman Jeff Jackson has always put public service first, from the battlefields of Afghanistan to the North Carolina legislature and now in the US Congress. Time and again, he’s fought to protect North Carolinians from harm, and as his state’s next attorney general, he’ll continue to do this important work by standing up to the gun lobby and fighting to strengthen and defend lifesaving gun safety laws in his state.

Having been trained on a number of firearms in the US Army, Congressman Jackson knows that weapons of war have no place in our schools or on our streets. Like so many in this movement, he knows that doing nothing in the face of continued violence is unacceptable. After the shootings in Parkland, Florida, Congressman Jackson introduced the Safer Schools Healthier Kids Act in the North Carolina Senate, which included provisions to create extreme risk protection orders, ban the sale of assault weapons and long guns to minors in his state, outlaw bump stocks and trigger cranks, and require licensing for gun sales to adults. In the US House, Congressman Jackson has been proud to serve as the vice chair of the Gun Violence Prevention Task Force and has supported a number of commonsense gun safety bills—including safe storage measures like Ethan’s Law and legislation to expand background checks to all gun sales. As attorney general, he will go after organized crime that traffics guns through North Carolina, crack down on ghost guns, and continue to advocate for commonsense solutions to bring an end to our country’s epidemic of gun violence.

Gun laws across the country are under attack from the gun lobby and its extremist enablers, and it’s more important than ever that we have strong gun safety champions defending our progress. Nobody will be stronger in this mission than Congressman Jeff Jackson—and it’s imperative that North Carolina voters send him to Raleigh this fall. With him in office, North Carolinians can rest easy knowing their attorney general will always put their safety first.

We are proud to endorse Jeff Jackson for Attorney General of North Carolina.
