U.S. Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick

Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick is the recipient of the 2023 Steve LaTourette Unified America Award for Outstanding Bipartisan Leadership.
For 14 years prior to representing his hometown of Pennsylvania's First Congressional District, Brian Fitzpatrick served our nation both as an FBI Special Agent and Federal Prosecutor, fighting both domestic and international political corruption, and supporting global counterterrorism and counterintelligence efforts – including being embedded with U.S. Special Forces as part Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Brian also served as National Director for the FBI’s Campaign Finance and Election Crimes Enforcement Program and as a National Supervisor for the FBI’s Public Corruption Unit at FBI Headquarters, where he was recognized as an expert in restoring integrity to governmental institutions.
In the 118th Congress, Congressman Fitzpatrick sits on the Ways and Means Committee and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. In addition, he co-chairs the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus and Congressional Ukraine Caucus, while also serving on the Bipartisan Addiction and Mental Health Task Force and NATO Parliamentary Assembly.
The Summit for Civil Rights is paying tribute to Congressman Fitzpatrick for his support for working men and women and particularly for his recent efforts, with Congressman Donald Norcross, to relaunch a Bipartisan Building Trades Caucus in the United States Congress. We look forward to working with him and other members to make that caucus more powerful and committed to inclusive living wage jobs.
