Broom is the fourth generation on his family's 100-year-old dairy farm. With his family, he milks about 110
registered holstein cows with two Lely robots and grows corn, wheat, and hay on about 600 acres. Ed and his
wife, Sarah, have five children: Helen, Eddie, Etta, Kenny Jack, and Edee.
Ed attended Northern Michigan University where he received degrees in Music Education and Social Studies
Secondary Education. After graduating in 2005, he represented young farmers across Michigan's Upper
Peninsula on Michigan Farm Bureau's State Young Farmer Committee and on the State Policy Development
Committee. Ed successfully ran for the Michigan House of Representatives in 2016 where he served until being
termed out at the end of 2016. He was then elected to the Michigan Senate in 2018, and he currently chairs the
Senate Oversight and Natural Resources committees.
Besides farming and continuing political work, Ed is on the U.P. State Fair Authority and shows his dairy cows
there and at the Dickinson County Fair. He also directs Michigan's oldest continuous municipal band, the
Norway City Band, and teaches Sunday School at the First Baptist Church of Norway.
