Christine Cohen

Cohen was a member of the Guilford, Connecticut school board from November 2015. Following Edward M. Kennedy Jr.'s retirement, Cohen contested the Connecticut Senate's 12th district seat in 2018 as a Democratic Party candidate, facing Adam Greenberg and Jerry Mastrangelo. Mastrangelo later ended his campaign, and Cohen defeated Greenberg in the general election. Cohen took office as a state senator on 9 January 2019, which necessitated her resignation from the school board, on which she was replaced by Richard Hersh. Cohen stated in January 2020 that she would run for reelection from Connecticut's 12th Senate district.

Cohen and her husband Rob have three children. The couple moved to Madison in 2001, and since 2007, have lived in Guilford.
