Jackson Stallings Announces Campaign for Oklahoma’s First Congressional District

Stallings touts both local and national conservative support out of the gate with endorsements from U.S. Congressman Brandon Gill and Oklahoma legend Steve Largent 

Tulsa, OK — Navy veteran and America First Republican Jackson Stallings announced his candidacy for the United States House of Representatives in Oklahoma’s First Congressional District. Jackson pledges to fight for President Trump’s America First agenda, defend Christian values, and deliver results for Oklahoma families.

Stallings, a Navy Judge Advocate General (JAG) wants to continue the great work of Congressman Kevin Hern. His campaign will focus on restoring American strength by securing the border, lowering costs for families, and standing up to the political establishment in Washington.

“Service to America isn’t just a belief — it’s a family tradition,” Stallings said. “From a young age I learned that our freedoms are not guaranteed and defending them is one of life’s highest callings, which is why I’m proud to stand with President Trump and the America First movement.”

Stallings comes from a long line of military service. As a child, he often wore a fighter jacket to school that bore the patches of his grandfather’s squadrons from WWII, Korea, and Vietnam.

Raised by a high school football coach, Stallings learned the values of discipline, teamwork, and hard work early in life. He went on to play college football at Yale, where he stood firm for conservative principles in one of the most liberal environments in the country. After graduating from Yale, Stallings attended the University of Virginia School of Law before joining the United States Navy as a JAG officer.

“Success in football and in public service comes down to discipline and doing things the right way, and as a Navy veteran and fiscal conservative, Jackson Stallings has the toughness and principles we need in Washington,” said Steve Largent, Pro Football Hall of Famer and former U.S. Congressman from Oklahoma.

“I am proud to endorse my longtime friend Jackson Stallings for Congress in Oklahoma’s First District,” said Congressman Brandon Gill. “Jackson is a proven patriot, Navy veteran, strong Christian, and fighter who will back President Trump’s America First agenda in Oklahoma.”

Today, Stallings works with Main Street businesses helping entrepreneurs access the resources they need to grow and create jobs in their communities. Jackson and his wife, Jeni, are raising their two young children with the same values that shaped his life: faith, family & freedom. 

“The left has weakened America and is a threat to the longevity of Western Civilization," Stallings said. “I’m running to do the hard things necessary so our children inherit a prosperous and free country — where Oklahoma families can afford groceries, live in a country with secure borders, and once again pursue the American dream. I will stand with President Trump to restore American strength, defend our Christian conservative values, and put America First.”
