Ted Kennedy and his political family – the New Generation.
Today Ted Kennedy’s family is still involved in politics, especially his son, Patrick J. Kennedy. In 1988, when Patrick was just 21 years old, he won a seat in the Rhode Island State Assembly. He was, at the time, still a student at Providence College. In 1994, Kennedy, the younger, set his sights on a national office. He ran for, and won the race for Rhode Island’s first congressional district. Similar to his father, Patrick Kennedy serves on the House Labor, Health and Human Services and Education Committee and is an advocate for affordable health care.
