Thomas Jonathan Ossoff (/ˈɒsɒf/ OSS-off; born February 16, 1987) is an American politician serving as the senior United States senator from Georgia since 2021. A member of the Democratic Party, Ossoff was previously a documentary filmmaker and investigative journalist.

Prior to his career in politics, Ossoff worked on documentary production. In 2017, he ran in the special election for Georgia's 6th congressional district, narrowly losing a seat that had long been considered a Republican stronghold. In 2020, Ossoff won the 2020 U.S. Senate election in Georgia, beating incumbent Republican senator David Perdue in a runoff election.

Ossoff is the youngest member of the Senate elected since Don Nickles in 1980, as well as the first senator born in the 1980s, and the first millennial United States senator. Warnock and Ossoff are the first Democrats to represent Georgia in the United States Senate since Zell Miller in 2005.
