Tyler Mack lived in a single-parent household with two older brothers. At an early age, Mack learned the importance of hard work, love and the strength of the community. He watched his mom obtain a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree while working a full-time job and raising three boys. That moment in time inspired him to fight for his dreams – no matter the obstacle.

Mack’s passion to help people in his community was rooted in his involvement in the church. As an adolescent, his pastor, Bishop John R. Thompson (Calvary Temple Christian Center, Bridgeport) and the legendary civil rights leader, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. demonstrated a level of dedication and service to the community that inspired him to make the same impact.

Mack’s political accomplishments include: the passage of the Empowered City Council Act, Capital Budget ordinance, and the revamping of the Fair Rent and Fair Housing Commissions for the City of Bridgeport. Mack also traveled to Flint, Michigan to help with the water crisis; served as the secretary for the Delta Pi Sigma Chapter of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc.; and held a variety of roles in local and state politics.

Mack is a graduate of High Horizons Magnet School, Bullard-Havens Technical High School, and Eastern Connecticut State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. Mack currently serves as the Outreach Manager to Congressman Jim Himes. He is the former legislative aide to the State Senate President of Connecticut. He plans to utilize the lessons learned and the connections made at the State and Federal level to deliver for the 22nd Senatorial District.

Mack’s work on the City Council was centered on helping Bridgeport reach its full potential by investing in our education system, infrastructure, and small businesses. He looks to continue that work as a State Senator.

Mack understands the road will not be easy, but with the same core concepts he has seen to be proven true to succeed through any obstacles: hard work, love and the strength of the community, Mack believes he can deliver for Bridgeport, Trumbull, and Monroe.
