Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett’s FIRE PAC has announced 19 new endorsements for candidates competing in congressional, statewide and local races across 11 states ahead of the November 2026 midterm elections.

The political action committee is focusing on competitive races, with an emphasis on affordability, civil rights, voter participation and strengthening Democratic representation in Southern states. The endorsements include candidates seeking seats in the U.S. House and Senate, statewide offices and state legislatures, as well as the mayoralty of Los Angeles.

Crockett, a Texas Democrat, plans to campaign in several states, including Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama, South Carolina and North Carolina, as the organization works to support its endorsed candidates.

FIRE PAC also emphasized the importance of investing in down-ballot races and building campaign infrastructure in Southern states, arguing that voter engagement and resources are critical to competing in areas that have received less national political investment.

The newly endorsed candidates represent a range of races that could shape representation and policymaking at the federal, state and local levels.
