Leandra Columberg

Leandra Columberg (born 1999) is a Swiss politician who has served in the Cantonal Council of Zürich since 2019 as a member of the Social Democratic Party.

Columberg was apolitical until age 16 when she studied for a year in the United States, where she was "shocked by Donald Trump's aggressive election campaign" and became opposed to right-wing populism.

She has also pushed for providing free menstrual hygiene products in schools and for masks to be distributed to the people of the canton.
