Howard Walker (born December 10, 1954) is a Republican politician from Michigan who served a term in the Michigan Senate after serving three terms in the Michigan House of Representatives.[1]
Prior to his election to the Legislature, Walker had a career in the oil and gas industry and later started and owned a land surveying business.[2]
In August 2013, Walker announced his intention not to seek a second term in the Senate. The next month, after voting in favor of expanding Medicaid in Michigan under the Affordable Care Act, Walker was caught on tape at a Republican luncheon telling a local conservative radio host "screw you" after the host, Brian Sommerfield, called Walker a "weak Republican."[3]
