Lisa Carmella McClain (née Iovannisci; born April 7, 1966)[1][2] is an American politician who has served as a U.S. representative from Michigan since 2021.

[8][9][10] She defeated state Representative Shane Hernandez in the August 4 Republican primary[11] and Democratic nominee Kimberly Bizon in the November 3 general election.

[22] McClain joined the majority of the House in voting to pass the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 to suspend the U.S. debt ceiling.

[23] In a 2025 interview with Politico, McClain amplified a rumor that Social Security payments were going out to people born 150 years ago.
