Larry Jackson is a retired Department of Defense research engineer and now works as a contractor doing research. He has a bachelor’s degree in math and a master's degree in mechanical engineering. He was an adjunct Math Professor at Northern Virginia Community College for over five years. He was elected as one of the Co-Chairs of the Fauquier County Democratic Committee from 2018-2022. He is active in the local Black Lives Matter Vigil for Action and has attended since May 2020. He believes in climate change and relies on science and research to come to conclusions. He is a husband, father, grandfather, and son and has lived in Virginia for over 40 years. He has lived in Fauquier County since 2014.
Jackson does not have a comprehensive priorities or issues list on his website, but he does offer hints to his progressive leaning: he calls himself “pro environmental protection, pro healthcare access for all, pro public education, and pro common sense gun laws.” He is also endorsed by Planned Parenthood Advocates of Virginia.
Jackson announced his candidacy via a press release in which he outlined some of his positions. He says that “defending a woman’s right to choose and control her health care needs is my highest priority. We are witnessing states throughout the country and, particularly the south, restrict or deny the right for women to make the most personal and impactful decisions about their healthcare and lives. On behalf of my wife, daughter and numerous friends of mine I will do my best to ensure that Virginia remains a state where a woman has reproductive rights.”
Some of his other priorities include health care reform, environmental protection, public education and "common-sense gun laws." Jackson grew up on military bases, where he never saw neighbors carrying guns. He talks about strict rules that were in place about gun ownership and where a person can carry a gun. He models his position after this experience, arguing that I weapons of war should not be available to anyone who wants one, and there needs to be restrictions on their use.
Additionally, Jackson said he is committed to social justice reform “to ensure that all Virginia residents are treated fairly regardless of their race, gender, religion or ethnic background.” This extends to public school classrooms and civil society, where “we are increasingly witnessing efforts to control what people can read and how they can worship or where and how they can vote. This must stop, and I pledge to fight for our continued liberty as enshrined in our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.”
Jackson is challenging incumbent Republican Delegate Michael Webert. Webert has supported multiple anti-trans bills. He has supported initiatives to attack election access and integrity. He takes a hardline anti-abortion stance who supports Newsom’s initiative to ban abortion.
Given his support for reproductive freedoms, healthcare access, and civil liberties, Jackson is the progressive choice in this race.
