Patrick Joseph Toomey Jr. (/ˈtuːmiː/ TOO-mee; born November 17, 1961) is an American businessman and politician who served as a United States senator from Pennsylvania from 2011 to 2023.[1] A member of the Republican Party, he served three terms as the U.S. representative for Pennsylvania's 15th congressional district, from 1999 to 2005.
Of mixed Irish Catholic and Azorean descent, Toomey graduated from Harvard College. A former Wall Street banker,[2] Toomey narrowly lost the Republican primary for United States Senate in 2004. From 2005 to 2009, he served as president of the Club for Growth.[3] Toomey won the Republican primary for the 2010 U.S. Senate election in Pennsylvania, and was elected to the seat after defeating the Democratic nominee, former U.S. Navy three-star admiral and congressman Joe Sestak, in the general election.[4] He was reelected to the Senate in 2016, defeating Democratic nominee Katie McGinty.[5]
On October 5, 2020, Toomey announced that he would not run for reelection to a third Senate term in 2022.[6] On February 13, 2021, Toomey was one of seven Republican senators to vote to convict Donald Trump of incitement of insurrection in his second impeachment trial. After leaving office, Toomey joined the board of Apollo Global Management.[7]
