Cheyenne Hunt is an attorney, organizer, and advocate who has spent her career fighting for the people most often left out of the rooms where decisions get made. She is a leading advocate for survivors of violence, immigrant communities, reproductive health patients, and young people who have never seen themselves reflected in political leadership.
The daughter of a single mother and the descendant of Syrian refugees, Cheyenne brings a personal understanding of what it means to navigate systems that weren't built for you and a relentless commitment to changing them. She has worked inside the halls of our courtrooms, the U.S. Senate, and the United Nations. She's also organized on the streets alongside grassroots movements demanding something better. She ran for Congress as the first Democratic Gen-Z woman to seek federal office, powered entirely by small-dollar donors, because she believes that the people closest to the problems are the ones best positioned to solve them.
Cheyenne utilizes the power of law, policy, organizing, and media to build power for communities that have been systematically denied it.
As a human rights attorney, she has appeared in court as lead counsel for undocumented survivors of sexual violence, helping to secure visa protections that kept her clients safe. She has drafted motions to the United Nations, authored legislation, and advised the White House and the FTC on democracy-focused tech policy. As a Senate Judiciary Committee staffer, she helped shape the questions used to vet federal judicial nominees on reproductive rights, ensuring that bodily autonomy survives beyond a single election cycle.
As an organizer and campaigner, she has built coalitions across movements, including climate justice, reproductive rights, tech accountability, immigration, and labor — cultivating deep partnerships with leading advocacy organizations and elected officials nationwide. As a media strategist and commentator, she has developed campaigns reaching tens of millions of viewers and appears regularly on national television and radio to advocate for progressive policy priorities.
Whatever the arena, Cheyenne's approach is the same: find the people most directly impacted, put them at the center, and build something durable enough to last.
