Chedrick Greene is an American politician who is a member of the Michigan Senate, representing the 35th district which encompasses parts of Bay, Midland, and Saginaw counties. He was described by Katherine Dailey of Michigan Advance as a moderate Democrat.[1]

Earlier career

Greene is a Marine veteran and was a Saginaw fire captain. He had previously run for the Saginaw Public Schools Board of Education but withdrew from that race after being deployed to Southeast Asia.[2] In addition to his role as fire captain, Greene was the department's community relations liaison.[3]

Governor Gretchen Whitmer appointed Greene to the Statewide Housing Partnership in 2023, an advisory body of the Michigan State Housing Development Authority.[4]

Michigan Senate

Following the election of then-state senator Kristen McDonald Rivet to the U.S. House of Representatives, Rivet resigned her seat in the Michigan Senate. Greene ran in a special election to succeed her and received Rivet's endorsement.[5] On February 3, 2026, Greene defeated president of the Michigan State Board of Education Pamela Pugh in the Democratic primary, receiving 68.5% of the vote.[6]

In May 2026, Greene defeated Republican attorney Jason Tunney, receiving 58.9% of the vote.[7] Greene won by 19.5% in a district that Kamala Harris, a fellow Democrat, won by less than one point in the 2024 presidential election.[8] Greene was sworn in on May 21.[9]
