Chairman Andrew J. Deloney

Mr. Deloney was originally appointed as an Administrative
Commissioner to the Michigan Liquor Control Commission on June 10, 2011
by Gov. Rick Snyder for a four-year term, and was re-appointed April 24,
2015 for a second four-term that expires on June 12, 2019. At the time of
both of his appointments, Gov. Snyder designated him Chairman. Prior to
this appointment, Mr. Deloney served as Vice President of Public Affairs for
the Michigan Restaurant Association (MRA), a position he held since 2003.
In that role, he oversaw the legislative, regulatory, and political operations
of a trade association widely and consistently considered to be one of the
most powerful and influential in Lansing. In addition to the MRA earning
plaudits under his leadership, Mr. Deloney was voted numerous times by
Lansing insiders to be one of Lansing’s top individual lobbyists. Before his
time at the MRA, he was the assistant state director for Michigan’s arm of
the National Federal of Independent Business, an advocacy organization
for small and independent business owners. Mr. Deloney also previously
served as a legislative assistant in the Michigan House of Representatives,
performing policy duties for two state representatives. Mr. Deloney earned
a bachelor’s degree in political science with a concentration in public
service from Albion College in Albion, Michigan. He resides in White Lake in
the Detroit area with his wife, Tammy, and daughters, Audrey and Abigail.
