Jon Ossoff

Who are they?

Having emerged victorious in his high-profile Senate run-off race, Jon was the youngest person elected to Congress since Joe Biden took office in 1973. After undergrad at Georgetown University and receiving his Masters at the London School of Economics, Jon ran a media production company that produced documentaries investigating corruption and war crimes for international news organizations. He returned stateside and worked as a national security aide for Georgia Congressman Hank Johnson before running unsuccessfully in a special election for Georgia’s Sixth Congressional District seat. Though he lost that race, it gained him national attention, aiding in his eventual run for Senate where he became Georgia’s first Jewish senator.

What’s he saying?

“Hope, decency, and unity are not mere catchwords.”
