Leaders We Deserve – July 25, 2025

Posted on July 25, 2025

In 2024, Leaders We Deserve endorsed Christine Cockley, a bold and progressive young candidate for the Ohio House. With your help, she won.

After the election, Christine called to tell me something I’ll never forget. She had just been invited to a fundraiser with insurance lobbyists, people with direct business before the committee she now serves on. They pressured her to take corporate PAC money.

She refused.

Because of your support, she didn’t need to think twice.

That moment is exactly why Leaders We Deserve exists. If you believe in electing more candidates like Christine, please split a donation between her campaign and LWD today.

Now, Christine is making an impact in the legislature. Here are just a few of the things she’s already accomplished:

  • Introduced a bipartisan bill to hold law enforcement accountable for missing persons cases, inspired by a tragedy in her own neighborhood
  • Passed a resolution recognizing Disability Pride Month in Ohio
  • Won support for local farmers through an amendment honoring National Farmers Market Week
  • Led a bipartisan push against a reckless federal AI ban that threatened jobs and education in Central Ohio
  • Voted no on a state budget that handed billions to the wealthy while cutting essential services for working families

This is what Leaders We Deserve is all about. Christine is standing up for her values and her community and we’re going to elect more champions like her.

Can you split a donation between Christine Cockley and Leaders We Deserve today to keep powering this work?
