Congratulations! 2024 Legislator of the Year Award Recipient

State Representative Amos O’Neal (D-Saginaw)

Representative Amos O’Neal is serving his second term representing the 94th House District. A long-time activist for his community, he served on the Saginaw County Board of Commissioners for 4 years and spent 13 years on the Saginaw City Council, including time as mayor pro tem, and as a member of the League Board of Trustees. As majority vice chair of the House Appropriations Committee, Representative O’Neal has helped direct hundreds of millions of dollars toward infrastructure, placemaking, and housing at the local level. He also championed the League’s number one legislative priority, the creation of a Revenue Sharing Trust Fund, and successfully guided its passage through the House by a vote of 106-4. This is a remarkable accomplishment and puts this legislation closer to receiving the governor’s signature. Representative O’Neal remains an actively engaged legislator on a broad range of issues that are important to the League. The League’s relationship with him and his team has provided opportunities to advance critical issues for local governments in Michigan. We truly appreciate his commitment to the residents and communities in his district and his thoughtful work on behalf of all local units of government.
