A lawyer, he served in both chambers of the Massachusetts legislature and as Norfolk County district attorney before winning election to Congress in 2010. He serves on the House Armed Services and Foreign Affairs committees.[1][2][3]

Basic profile — the most important sourced facts we found.

Keating was born September 6, 1952, in Norwood, Massachusetts, and raised in Sharon.[3] He earned a bachelor's degree (1974) and a master's degree (1982) from Boston College and a law degree from Suffolk University (1985); Wikipedia describes the master's as an MBA and says he later became a partner at the law firm Keating & Fishman.[1][3]

Keating was elected to the Massachusetts House of Representatives in 1976, at age 24, and served there until 1984, when he won a Norfolk and Suffolk seat in the Massachusetts State Senate; he remained in the State Senate into the late 1990s.[1][3] In 1998 he was elected Norfolk County District Attorney, defeating the incumbent, and he was reelected without opposition in 2002 and 2006.[1][3] His office launched a Norfolk Anti-Crime Council and a drug court pilot program, and laid the groundwork for a Children's Advocacy Center in the county.[1][3]

Keating won the open 10th District seat in the 2010 election, defeating Republican state Rep. Jeff Perry, and took office in January 2011; after redistricting in 2012, he ran in the redrawn 9th District, which he has represented since 2013.[1][3] He serves on the House Armed Services Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee, where he is the top Democrat on the Subcommittee on Europe, and according to Wikipedia his work has focused on district issues such as the fishing industry and nuclear safety.[3][34] He co-sponsored Medicare for All in 2019 and won the September 1, 2026 Democratic primary over Craig Swallow in his bid for an eighth term.[34] According to Wikipedia, Keating lives in Bourne with his wife, Tevis, and they have two adult children.[3] He won the November 3, 2026 general election with 60.9% of the vote to Tyler Macallister's 39.1%, according to unofficial results reported by NBC News.[2]
