Meet John Leiber
John Leiber was elected Wisconsin State Treasurer in November 2022 and took office in January 2023. He didn’t come to Madison to invent a new job. He came to do this one.
​
His hometown is Caledonia, where his family roots run four generations deep. He has spent his entire adult life in Wisconsin — as a legislative staffer in the Assembly and Senate, a tax advisor at the Department of Revenue, and an attorney in real estate, wills and probate. In Racine County he led as president of his local Park and Recreation Commission and served as a Housing Authority commissioner.
Grassroots work is not a recent hobby. John volunteered on his first campaign more than 25 years ago and has fought to elect conservatives ever since—as a campaign manager and a board member of his local Republican Party.
​
He earned a BA in History from UW-Parkside and a law degree from the University of Wisconsin Law School. John and his wife, Diane, live in Cottage Grove. They have three adult children.
