Michelle M. DuBois (born April 14, 1973) is an American politician serving as a Democratic member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives. She was elected in November 2014 [1][2] to represent the 10th Plymouth District (West Bridgewater, the east side of Brockton, and Precinct 1 of East Bridgewater) and was sworn in on January 7, 2015. Rep. DuBois was re-elected to a second term on November 8, 2016, after running uncontested. Rep DuBois won her third term in 2018 against John F. Cruz and won her fourth election in 2020 against Jack Lally .[3]

In late March 2017, Rep. DuBois worked to compromise a supposed U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) a raid in Brockton, Massachusetts by posting a warning on Facebook.[4][5]

In 2018 she called for a sign at the Massachusetts State House honoring General Joseph Hooker to be removed, stating that his name was a "double entendre" that was "tone deaf" and “patriarchal”.[6]
