Coleman Alexander Young II (born October 18, 1982) is a Democratic politician who is a current member of the Detroit City Council and a former member of the Michigan Senate. In the Michigan Senate, he represented the 1st district, which included the municipalities of Ecorse, Gibraltar, River Rouge, Riverview, Trenton, Woodhaven, Wyandotte and a portion of Detroit.[1] He served as the vice chair of the Local Government and Elections Committee,[2] General Government Appropriations Subcommittee, Judiciary Appropriations Subcommittee, Licensing And Regulatory Affairs Appropriations Subcommittee and Transportation Appropriations Subcommittee.[3] Young also sat on the Appropriations Committee[4] and Insurance Committee.[5] He previously served as the vice chair of the Outdoor Recreation and Tourism Committee and Reforms, Restructuring and Reinventing Committee, as well as having previously served on the Banking and Financial Institutions Committee, Education Committee and Energy and Technology Committee.[6] From 2011 to 2014, Young served as the Senate Assistant Minority Caucus Chair and also served as the Senate Assistant Minority Floor Leader.[7]
From 2007 to 2010, Young served as the representative in the 4th District of the Michigan House of Representatives.[8] The 4th District was composed of the Lower East Side of Detroit, including a portion of Downtown and Midtown.[9] During his time in the House, Young served as the vice chair of the Insurance Committee[10] and sat on the Intergovernmental and Regional Affairs Committee, Labor Committee and Transportation Committee.[11]
Young unsuccessfully ran in both the 2009 Detroit mayoral special election and the 2017 Detroit mayoral election, being the runner-up in the latter. In 2018, Young ran to represent Michigan's 13th U.S. Congressional district. The seat was vacant, due to the resignation of John Conyers.[12] Young lost the primary to Rashida Tlaib, who won the general election. In 2022, Young was elected to the Detroit City Council.
