Mike McFall (born March 4, 1974) is an American politician serving as a member of the Michigan House of Representatives since 2023, currently representing the 14th district. He is a member of the Democratic Party.

Mike McFall was born on March 4, 1974, and grew up in Burton, Michigan, a suburb of Flint. Growing up his father worked for General Motors and was a member of UAW while his mother worked at a local elementary school.

McFall graduated from Central Michigan University with a bachelor of science in community development and public administration. He worked in the nonprofit sector and as a Membership Services and Philanthropy Associate for the Williams Syndrome Association before being elected.

In 2017, McFall and his husband moved to Hazel Park, where he quickly became part of the local community, joining local community boards and becoming elected to the city council in 2019. As a member of the city council and the downtown development authority he launched the Downtown Hazel Park Initiative, designed to rejuvenate the downtown and attract business from wealthier, surrounding communities. He would also be elected Mayor Pro Tempore of the city.

In February 2022 McFall announced his candidacy for the Michigan House of Representatives, filing to run in the newly drawn 8th district, declaring his priorities to be supporting skilled trades, fixing municipal finance, and supporting mental health. He also made clear the importance of LGBTQ representation in Lansing, and the need to expand the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act.

After winning the primary he was elected by a landslide in the general election on November 8, 2022.

Following court-mandated redistricting of the Detroit area, McFall ran in the 14th district for the 2024 election, winning reelection.

McFall was the primary sponsor and passed HB 4194 (2023) which would allow returning citizens to receive a state ID upon release, PA 275 of 2024 which would require the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services to apply for the federal Ground Emergency Medical Transport program, and PA 149 of 2024 which expands disabled license plate qualification to disabled veterans who are at least 50% disabled based on the Department of Veteran's Affairs qualifications.
