Jack Schlossberg, President John F. Kennedy's only grandson, is running for Congress in New York — launching a campaign to replace retiring Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), he announced Tuesday.

The big picture: The writer and high-profile Democrat is set to join a crowded primary race after forming an exploratory committee in September on running for the New York U.S. congressional seat, with nonprofit CEO Liam Elkind and state Assemblyman Micah Lasher already announcing bids. • Schlossberg, the 32-year-old son of Caroline Kennedy, the U.S. Ambassador to Australia, says on his newly launched campaign website that he's "running for Congress because the best part of the greatest city on earth needs to be heard loud and clear in Washington and deserves a representative who won't back down."
