Michigan's 19th congressional district is an obsolete United States congressional district in Michigan. The first candidate elected from the newly created district was Billie S. Farnum in 1964. It was eliminated as a result of the redistricting cycle after the 1980 census.

The last representative from the district, William Broomfield, was subsequently elected from the 18th district after dissolution of this district.
