State Rep. Regina Weiss is serving her third term representing the 5th House District which encompasses parts of Oak Park, Royal Oak, Detroit, and Royal Oak Township.
Originally from Indiana, Weiss attended Valparaiso University before moving to Michigan to begin her career as a teacher in the Detroit Public Schools Community District. She also served as an Oak Park City Council member until her election to the House in 2020, where she was a strong advocate for increased investments in the local community.
As a former educator, Weiss brings with her to Lansing an in-depth, intimate knowledge of the many issues plaguing Michigan’s public schools and is dedicated to using that knowledge to help improve education policy at the state level.
