What to Know About Jon Ossoff's Wife, Alisha Kramer

Jon Ossoff, the Republican hopeful from Georgia, has seen his chances of becoming the Democratic nominee for president increase in recent weeks, despite his insistence on not running for the top job in 2028. Ossoff, who is up for re-election in November, recently criticized Trump during a rally in Atlanta, making a pointed jab at one of Trump's aides, Natalie Harp. This has drawn attention not only to Ossoff's political ambitions but also his family, particularly his wife, Dr. Alisha Kramer.

Ossoff and Kramer got engaged in 2017 and have been together for 12 years, dating since they were teenagers. Kramer is currently an obstetrics and gynecology doctor at Emory University, having completed her residency there in 2023. She graduated from Georgetown University and Emory University School of Medicine. In 2021, when Ossoff won his Senate seat and became the youngest person elected to the Senate since 1980, Kramer was working in the hospital.

During his victory speech, Ossoff thanked his wife, stating she was at the hospital helping Georgia mothers deliver healthy babies and save lives.

Kramer has been a public figure in her own right, having testified against Georgia's "Heartbeat bill" in the state senate in 2019. The bill, which made abortions illegal after a detectable heartbeat could be detected, put her in the position of opposing the very policy her husband now supports as a senator. The ban has remained in effect in Georgia, despite legal challenges, making Kramer's medical advocacy relevant to the state's ongoing abortion policy.

Ossoff and Kramer have two daughters, Eva and Lila, born in 2021 and 2025, respectively. Their immediate focus remains Ossoff's reelection campaign in November, but his growing national political prospects have brought renewed attention to his wife and her medical career and advocacy work.
