Black History Month is an opportunity to honor and celebrate the achievements and contributions of Black Americans who have pushed our country forward. This year, we have the chance to uplift and support our very own groundbreaking voice for Black lives, Rep. Shontel Brown.
Shontel has always been a fierce advocate for Black Ohioans. As a Cuyahoga County Councilmember, she crafted and passed a bipartisan bill declaring racism a public health crisis. She made history as the first woman and first Black person to lead the state's largest Democratic party, the Cuyahoga County Democrats. And now, she’s fighting for Black lives in Congress every day.
Shontel’s work has always focused on securing healthcare, jobs, and justice for Ohio's Black community and our most disenfranchised community members. But to keep her fighting in Congress and ensure her team has the resources to uplift Black voices in OH-11 and beyond, she needs your support.
As a Cuyahoga County Council member and Chairwoman of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party, Shontel Brown has spent the last decade serving the people of Ohio and building coalitions. Now, as the Congresswoman for Ohio’s 11th District, she will fight for affordable quality health care, jobs that pay fair wages, a strong public education system, and equity and justice for all. Will you join her and be the change we need?
