Jennifer Hill (born September 26, 1966) is an American Democratic politician from Michigan. She was elected to the Michigan House of Representatives from the 109th district in the 2022 election.

Hill worked as a Marquette City Commissioner and as a clean energy and youth advocate.

Early life and education

After Jenn was born September 26, 1966, in Belvidere, Illinois, Hill's family moved all over the Midwest for economic reasons. In her senior year of high school Hill was voted Female Athlete of the Year. She went to Barnard College (1984–1988) and received an Anthropology BA, cum laude; and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1993–1995) for Environmental Planning, earning a master's in City Planning.

Michigan House of Representatives

Hill is majority vice chair on the Natural Resources, Environment, Tourism and Outdoor Recreation committee. She also serves on the Energy, Communications and Technology; Higher Education; and Local Government and Municipal Finance committees.

Hill supports infrastructure investments, free school breakfast and lunches for students, ending Right to Work laws, repealing the retirement tax, and protecting reproductive rights and freedom.

On Twitter (Now X), Hill has posted in support of the Harris-Walz ticket in the 2024 Presidential election.

Hill is currently (as of 2024) the only democrat who represents any part of the Upper Peninsula in the Michigan Legislature.

Campaigns

in 2022, Hill ran for Michigan's 109th House District which covers the counties of Alger, Marquette, Baraga and the eastern two-thirds of Dickinson. After winning the 2022 Democratic primary against candidate Joe Boogren, Hill won in the general election against Republican candidate Melody Wagner. Wagner received 47% of the vote compared to Hill's 53%, a difference of roughly 1,500 votes.

Hill's seat is up for election in 2024. She won renomination in the democratic primary. Karl Bohnak won the republican primary.
