Jackson is the latest high-profile figure to put their support behind Frost. In May, Frost received endorsements from Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Congressional Progressive Caucus Chairwoman Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), former NAACP President Ben Jealous and labor and civil rights activist Dolores Huerta.
Frost has also received the backing of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus’s campaign arm, the Communication Workers of America, and the League of Conservation Voters.
As of May, Frost had raised nearly a million dollars, beating out his closest competitor by a 2-to-1 margin at this point in the campaign.
The district is considered solidly Democratic, but Frost will face seven other primary opponents in the Aug. 23 primary, including state Sen. Randolph Bracy (D), attorney Natalie Jackson and the Rev. Terence Gray.
Republicans running for the district include retired Army Col. Cal Wimbish and nonprofit executive Willie Montague.
