About Senator Lee
Elected in 2010 as Utah's 16th Senator,
Mike Lee has spent his career defending the basic liberties of
Americans and Utahns as a tireless advocate for our founding
constitutional principles.
Senator Lee acquired a deep respect for the Constitution early
on. His father, Rex Lee, who served as the Solicitor General under
President Ronald Reagan, would often discuss varied aspects of
judicial and constitutional doctrine around the kitchen table, from
Due Process to the uses of Executive Plenary Power. He attended
most of his father's arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court,
giving him a unique, hands-on experience and understanding of
government up close.
Lee graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor of
Science in Political Science, and served as BYU's Student Body
President in his senior year. He graduated from BYU's Law School in
1997 and went on to serve as law clerk to Judge Dee Benson of the
U.S. District Court for the District of Utah, and then with future
Supreme Court Justice Judge Samuel A. Alito, Jr. on the U.S. Court
of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
Lee spent several years as an attorney with the law firm Sidley
& Austin specializing in appellate and Supreme Court
litigation, and then served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in Salt
Lake City arguing cases before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Tenth Circuit.
Lee served the state of Utah as Governor Jon Huntsman's General
Counsel and was later honored to reunite with Justice Alito, now on
the Supreme Court, for a one-year clerkship. He returned to private
practice in 2007.
Throughout his career, Lee earned a reputation as an outstanding
practitioner of the law based on his sound judgment, abilities in
the courtroom, and thorough understanding of the Constitution.
Today, Lee fights to preserve America's proud founding document
in the United States Senate. He advocates efforts to support
constitutionally limited government, fiscal responsibility,
individual liberty, and economic prosperity.
Lee is a member of the Judiciary Committee, and serves as
ranking Member of the Antitrust, Competition Policy and Consumer
Rights Subcommittee protecting business competition and personal
freedom.
He also oversees issues critical to Utah as the top Republican
on the Water and Power Subcommittee of the Energy and Natural
Resources Committee. He serves on the Foreign Relations Committee
and the Joint Economic Committee, as well.
Lee and his wife Sharon live in Alpine, Utah, with their three
children. He is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints and served a two-year mission for the Church in
the Texas Rio Grande Valley.
