Brett Guthrie (born February 18, 1964) is a former Republican member of the Kentucky Senate representing the 32nd district where he had served since 1999. Guthrie served as Vice Chaiman of the Economic Development, Tourism and Labor Committee, and is Chairman of the Transportation Committee. He is now a member of the United States House of Representatives, representing Kentucky's 2nd congressional district.

On November 4, 2008 Guthrie was elected to the United States House of Representatives in Kentucky's 2nd congressional district, defeating his opponent Democratic State Senator David Boswell from Sorgho, Kentucky.

Guthrie earned his Bachelor's of Science in Mathematical economics from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in 1987[1] and his Master's of Public and Private Management from Yale University in 1997.

Guthrie is Vice President of Trace Die Cast, Inc., an automotive parts supplier based in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Guthrie has previously served as a Field Artillery officer in the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Kentucky.

With his family, Guthrie attends the Lehman Avenue Church of Christ in Bowling Green, Kentucky, as reported by the Christian Chronicle; Michael Greene, minister of the Lehman Avenue congregation, said that he has no doubt "Guthrie’s faith will play a positive role" in representation of the 2nd district.[2]
