American legislative district

Michigan's 37th Senate district is one of 38 districts in the Michigan Senate. The 37th district was created with the adoption of the 1963 Michigan Constitution, as the previous 1908 state constitution only permitted 34 senatorial districts.[2][3] It has been represented by Republican John Damoose since 2023, succeeding fellow Republican Wayne Schmidt.
