Cheryl Renée Stephens (née Adler; born December 8, 1948) is the senior Senator for Huron, serving since 2003 along with fellow Democrat Hugh McNee. Prior to serving as Senator, Stephens was the Attorney General of Huron from 1989 to 1993, and was Huron's first female Governor from 1995 to 1999. Considered a rising star in Democratic circles, she was given a major speaking slot at the 1992 Democratic National Convention and was the keynote speaker at the 1996 Democratic Convention. Stephens ran in the 2000 Democratic Presidential primaries as a socially liberal, budget-balancing centrist, placing first in the Huron, Michigan and Nebraska primaries to gain early momentum, but eventually lost to similarly positioned Ohio Governor John Tanner.

Stephens was considered a potential Attorney General in a James Carrey or Jay Leno regime during the 2004 elections, but she was not offered or ever vetted for such a job following Leno's electoral victory that fall. She is considered a potential candidate to become Attorney General once again should Carrey win the 2012 Presidential election.
