Arizona State Senator Jack C. Jackson, Jr. Joins Blue Stone Strategy Group as Senior Strategist
Blue Stone Strategy Group welcomes Jack C. Jackson, Jr. to their diverse group of experts as a new Senior Strategist. Jackson currently serves in the 50th Arizona State Legislature as the Senator for Legislative District 2 in Northern Arizona which includes the City of Flagstaff, the Navajo Nation and the tribes of Hopi, Havasupai, Hualapai and San Juan Southern Paiute. From 2003 to 2005, Jack served in the Arizona House of Representatives representing LD 2. His greatest joy was working alongside his father, Senator Jack C. Jackson, Sr., who served in the State Legislature from 1985 to 2004. They were the first father and son to serve together.
“My father was such a great inspiration to me growing up on the Navajo Nation” said Jack Jackson, Jr. “Not only was he a delegate on the Navajo Nation Council and a member of the Arizona Legislature, but he assisted in the formation of the first tribally controlled college on Navajo. My journey is a continuation of his legacy of ensuring tribal communities have all the resources to sustain self-sufficiency.”
