David Nicola Cicilline (/sɪsɪˈliːni/ sih-sih-LEE-nee; born July 15, 1961) is an American lawyer and politician who served as the U.S. representative for Rhode Island's 1st congressional district from 2011 to 2023.[1] A member of the Democratic Party, he was the 36th mayor of Providence from 2003 to 2011, the first openly gay mayor of a U.S. state capital.[2][3]

Cicilline chaired the House Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Antitrust, Commercial and Administrative Law. In this role, he has supported efforts to modernize antitrust law.[4] On September 29, 2022, he was elected chair of the House Middle East, North Africa, and Global Counterterrorism subcommittee,[5] succeeding Ted Deutch, who resigned from the House on September 30, 2022.[6] In November 2022, Cicilline announced he would run against outgoing Majority Whip Leader Jim Clyburn as Assistant Democratic Leader, the fourth senior position in the Democratic House caucus.[7] Cicilline later dropped his bid for assistant minority leader.[8]

In February 2023, Cicilline announced his resignation from Congress, effective June 1, 2023, to become president and chief executive officer of the Rhode Island Foundation.[9][10][11]
