He serves on the Ways and Means and Intelligence committees.[1][2][3]

LaHood was born and raised in Peoria, Illinois, where his official biography calls him a third-generation Peorian, and he graduated from Spalding High School. According to Wikipedia, he is the son of Ray LaHood, a former U.S. Representative for the district and U.S. Secretary of Transportation.[2][33] He earned a B.A. from Loras College and a J.D. from the University of Illinois-Chicago John Marshall Law School.[2][3] LaHood spent more than nine years as a state and federal prosecutor, including as an Assistant State's Attorney in Cook and Tazewell counties and, from 2001 to 2006, as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he was selected as Chief Terrorism Prosecutor. He then practiced with the Peoria law firm Miller, Hall & Triggs from 2006 until his election to the House.[2]

After an unsuccessful run for Peoria County State's Attorney in 2008, LaHood was appointed to the Illinois State Senate in February 2011 and won a full term in 2012, serving until 2015.[33][2][3] He won a 2015 special election to the U.S. House and was sworn in on September 17, 2015. He represented the 18th District from 2015 to 2023 and, after redistricting, the 16th District, and was most recently re-elected on November 5, 2024.[2] LaHood joined the House Ways and Means Committee in January 2018, chairs its Work and Welfare Subcommittee and sits on the Trade Subcommittee. He was appointed to the House Intelligence Committee in March 2021 and the Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party in January 2022.[2]

LaHood co-chairs the bipartisan U.S.-China Working Group, Digital Trade Caucus, U.S.-Lebanon Friendship Caucus and Congressional Soccer Caucus. His official biography says he lives in Peoria with his wife Kristen and their three sons, and has completed five marathons.[2] He won re-election in the November 3, 2026 general election with 58.8% of the vote to Paul Nolley's 41.2%, according to unofficial results reported by NBC News.[1]

In their own words

Priorities

  • Our state and our nation needs a jobs revival, but the employment landscape won't change if crippling policies do not. I believe it is the government's responsibility to create an atmosphere where businesses can thrive. To get there, we need to cut overreaching regulations, eliminate burdensome mandates, and reform and simplify the tax code by closing loopholes and cutting rates.[35]
  • In Central Illinois, our farmers work tirelessly to provide for our families in Illinois as well as our country and nations abroad. To fully support the agriculture community, we must maintain effective programs that allow our farmers to remain globally competitive, we must reduce regulations, and we must expand opportunities for trade.[36]
  • Trade is of paramount importance to the economy of the 16th Congressional district. In order to continue to facilitate trade that benefits American workers, I believe it is essential to strengthen dialogue with our trade partners, to have clear agreements, and enforceable free and fair trade laws.[37]
