Michael T. Marron is a Republican member of the Illinois House of Representatives from the 104th district. The 104th district includes parts of Champaign and Vermilion counties in east-central Illinois.[1] Marron was sworn into office September 7, 2018 after his July 22, 2018 appointment to succeed Chad Hays.[2] Marron, who was the Republican candidate to succeed Hays at the time of his appointment, won the 2018 general election against Democratic candidate Cynthia Cunningham.[3]

Marron's committee assignments are the Committee on Community College Access & Affordability; the Committee on the Environment; and the Committee on Insurance Subcommittee on Property & Casualty.[4]

On September 3, 2019, Marron announced he would explore a run for Illinois's 15th congressional district to succeed retiring Congressman John Shimkus,[5] but shortly after opted to run for reelection to the Illinois House of Representatives.[6]

As of July 3, 2022, Representative Marron is a member of the following Illinois House committees:[7]

  • Energy & Environment Committee (HENG)
  • Firefighters and First Responders Subcommittee (SHPF-FIRE)
  • Higher Education Committee (HHED)
  • Housing Committee (SHOU)
  • Law Enforcement Subcommittee (SHPF-LAWE)
  • Police & Fire Committee (SHPF)
  • Roadways, Rail & Aviation Subcommittee (HTRR-ROAD)
  • Transportation: Regulation, Roads & Bridges Committee (HTRR)

Marron resigned from the Illinois House in December 2023 to begin work at an economic development organization in Vermilion County.[8]
