U.S. Representative Shontel Brown, who represents Ohio’s 11th district in Congress, addressed a range of topics in recent social media posts, from local elections to national economic issues and pop culture.

On August 26, 2025, Brown congratulated celebrity couple Travis and Taylor on their engagement, extending an invitation for them to consider Cleveland as a reception location. She wrote, "Congrats Travis & Taylor! Now that you’re end game, let me know if you need a reception spot, CLE has some of the best in the country. First dance at Severance Hall?"

Later that day, Brown commented on trade policy and its impact on small businesses. In her post she stated, "Small businesses can’t afford Trump’s tariffs." The issue of tariffs has been widely debated in recent years as many small business owners express concerns about increased costs related to U.S. trade policies.

The following morning, on August 27, 2025, Brown reminded constituents about the upcoming Primary Election Day: "September 9 is Primary Election Day for a number of local offices, including in Cleveland, Cleveland Heights, East Cleveland, and Garfield Heights.

Brown has served as the U.S. Representative for Ohio’s 11th District since replacing Marcia Fudge in 2021. Prior to her tenure in Congress, she was a member of the Cuyahoga County Council from 2015 to 2021. Born in Cleveland in 1975 and currently residing in Warrensville Heights at age 47, Brown holds a Bachelor of Science degree from Wilberforce University.
