About
Congressman Mike Kennedy, M.D., was raised by a single mother alongside his six siblings in Michigan. From a young age, Mike learned the value of hard work, starting his first job at just 12 years old—a foundation that would shape his adult life.
Dr. Kennedy served a two-year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and upon his return, he earned his Bachelor of Science degree from Brigham Young University. He then pursued his medical degree at Michigan State University, becoming a dedicated family physician. His passion for helping others led him back to Brigham Young University to pursue a law degree, driven by a desire to better advocate for his patients and ensure they received the best care possible.
Throughout his 35-year marriage to his wife, Katrina, Dr. Kennedy has raised eight children and now delights in his role as a grandfather to 12.
With a lifelong commitment to service, Congressman Kennedy has served in both the Utah House and Senate while maintaining his family medicine practice. He was sworn into the United States House of Representatives in January 2025, where he is focused on restoring fiscal responsibility, securing America’s borders, and pushing back against federal overreach.
Members of the U.S. House of Representatives write and vote on federal laws, including the federal budget. Each represents one district and serves a two-year term. Tax bills must start in the House, only the House can impeach federal officials, and members oversee federal agencies through their committees.
