Oct. 10, 2024–U.S. Senator, Katie Britt

U.S. Senator Katie Boyd Britt (R-Ala.)

In 2023, Senator Katie Boyd Britt was sworn in as Alabama’s first elected female Senator, the
youngest Republican woman ever elected to the U.S. Senate, and the only current Republican
mom of school-aged kids serving in the Senate. She is proud to champion hardworking families
as she fights to grow opportunity and preserve the American Dream for generations to come.
In the 118th Congress, Senator Britt serves on the Committee on Appropriations, where she is
ranking member of the Homeland Security subcommittee; the Committee on Banking, Housing,
and Urban Affairs; and the Committee on Rules and Administration. Her committee portfolio
strongly positions her to fight effectively for Alabama’s people, interests, and values as she
continues to identify and achieve tangible, meaningful solutions to the pressing challenges
facing Alabama and America.
The proud daughter of two small business owners in Enterprise, Alabama, the foundational
values of faith, family, and freedom were instilled in Senator Britt from an early age. Most
recently, Senator Britt worked to grow good-paying jobs and opportunity for all Alabamians as
President and CEO of Alabama’s business council. A practicing attorney by trade, Senator Britt is
a graduate of the University of Alabama and the University of Alabama School of Law. She
previously served as the chief of staff to Alabama’s then-senior U.S. Senator and has served on
numerous boards and committees. She now resides in Montgomery with her husband, Wesley,
and their two children.
