Michael T. McCaul (b. January 14, 1962, Dallas, Texas) is an American lawyer and politician who currently is the Republican U.S. Representative for Texas District 10 (map).
McCaul earned a Bachelor of Science from San Antonio's Trinity University in 1984 and his Juris Doctor from St. Mary's University in 1987. He also attended Harvard University ([1]).
McCaul worked as an attorney and a federal prosecutor before running for the U.S. House of Representatives in 2004. Lloyd Doggett originally held the post in District 10, but following the 2003 Texas redistricting, Doggett ran for Representative in District 25 and McCaul easily won in the 10th district with no Democratic opposition.
