Biography

State Representative Noah Arbit is serving his first term in the Michigan House, proudly representing the 20th District, which comprises West Bloomfield, eastern Commerce Township, and the cities of Keego Harbor, Orchard Lake, and Sylvan Lake.

Inspired by the teachings of his Jewish heritage, Rep. Arbit felt called to pursue a career of advocacy and service early on. After graduating with a degree in comparative politics and Jewish studies, Rep. Arbit joined several political campaigns, worked for the Michigan House, and served on Gov. Whitmer’s team.

After the Orlando and Pittsburgh shootings targeting the LGBTQ+ and Jewish communities, Rep. Arbit became a leading voice in the fight against hate and extremism in Michigan and founded the Michigan Democratic Jewish Caucus.

In November 2022, Rep. Arbit became the youngest LGBTQ+ person ever elected to the Legislature, and only the second Democrat to represent his district since the early 1800s.

In the Legislature, Rep. Arbit’s priorities include: combating hate crimes, extremism, and gun violence; addressing Michigan’s mental health crisis; preserving our lakes and climate; as well as supporting our vibrant small business community.
