Elizabeth “LIZ” Johnson has been a Georgia 12th resident for the past 27 years. Married 26 years to a retired law enforcement officer, together they have seven adult children, nineteen grandchildren and several great-grandchildren.

Liz Johnson worked in the insurance industry for 30 years before retiring. During her insurance career, Liz worked diligently to enhance the lives of many by providing aid and solutions to people’s needs and concerns.  

 

Over many years as a proven leader in her community, Liz has dedicated her time and talents as an elected officer and appointed board member with such organizations as: Statesboro Regional Library, C.A.S.A. (Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children), Habitat for Humanity, Lions Club, a school board zoning task force, Performing Arts mom, and PTA PTO mom, just to name a few. 

 

“At this time in history, we need individuals at every level of elected office who care about each individual, our families, our communities AND humanity. I am that person!” –Liz Johnson.

 

As a woman in politics, Liz has served at the county, district, and state committee level of the Democratic Party of Georgia for 25 years. In 2012, after being elected by her state committee peers, Liz also served as one of six Democratic National Committee members who represented the state of Georgia.

​

In 2014, Liz Johnson’s bid for Georgia Insurance Commissioner made her among few women and even fewer women of color to gain a major party nomination for a statewide executive office. That November, Liz received over 1 million votes statewide, giving Liz Johnson a well-recognized name in Georgia politics.

​

In 2020, after winning the Democratic Primary with 84% of the votes, Liz Johnson then came within striking distance of winning the U.S. House of Representatives seat in Georgia's 12th Congressional District. 

​

In 2022, Elizabeth "LIZ" Johnson again became the Democratic Nominee. After falling short of the General Election victory in 2020 and 2022, Elizabeth "LIZ" Johnson has returned more inspired than ever to win this seat for the far too many residents in Georgia's 12th and across America who remain overlooked and underrepresented. 

​

At this critical moment in history, we need someone like LIZ who cares, who's committed, determined and qualified by her journey of life experiences and community service. Your voice, your support, and our future together matters!

​

It's Time We Elect Elizabeth "LIZ" Johnson to the U.S. House of Representatives from Georgia's 12th district! Thank you in advance for your support!
