On January 26, 2009, Young announced that he would run for the United States congressional seat in Indiana's 9th district as a Republican.[11][12][13]

Young won the primary and general elections, defeating incumbent Baron Hill on November 2, 2010, and was seated in the 112th Congress in January 2011.[15]
2012
Young defeated Shelli Yoder, winning 55% of the vote in the newly redrawn 9th district.[16]
2014
Young defeated Bill Bailey, winning 62% of the vote.[17]
Tenure
Young is a member of the Republican Main Street Partnership along with three other Republican senators.[18] The Main Street Partnership is considered to be an association of moderate Republicans.[19] In 2013 the National Journal gave Young an overall composite rating of 69% conservative and 31% liberal, an economic rating of 69% conservative and 30% liberal, a social rating of 57% conservative and 42% liberal, and a foreign policy rating of 77% conservative and 15% liberal.[20]
In the 112th Congress, Young voted with the Republican Party 95% of the time.[21] During the 113th Congress, the Human Rights Campaign, which rates politicians' support for LGBT issues, rated Young 30%, indicating a mixed record.[22] In July 2012, Young took over as the lead sponsor of the REINS Act, a bill that passed the House in 2011 and would require congressional approval for rules with greater than $100 million in economic impact.[23]
In the 112th Congress, Young was a member of the
In 2010, Young stated that he was uncertain what was causing the observed heating of the planet, that it could be sunspots or normal cycles of nature, and that "the science is not settled."[25] That same year he signed a pledge sponsored by Americans for Prosperity promising to vote against any global warming legislation that would raise taxes.[26]
In 2011, he voted for the Energy Tax Prevention Act of 2011.[27] In 2014, he said that it is "not necessarily the case" that there is a scientific consensus on climate change.[28]
Sponsored legislation
- Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, but do nothing to the individual mandate requirement.[30]
When he introduced the Fairness for American Families Act, Young argued that "rather than driving healthcare costs down, the individual mandate is imposing a new tax and burdensome costs on middle class families" and therefore "hardworking Americans deserve the same exemptions that President Obama is unilaterally granting to businesses and labor unions."[30]

Elections
2016
Rather than run for reelection to the House, Young announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination in the 2016 election to fill the Senate seat of the retiring Dan Coats.[34] Also filing for the Republican primary was U.S. Representative Marlin Stutzman. Although Young was certified as having submitted enough signatures to qualify for the primary ballot, that official certification was challenged, and a tally by the Associated Press concluded that Young had fallen short.[35] The state Election Commission scheduled a hearing on the challenge for February 19, 2016.[35] The commission voted down the challenge with a 2–2 vote and Young remained on the ballot.[36]
Young easily defeated Stutzman in the May 3 primary, taking 67% of approximately one million votes cast.[37] He was initially slated to face former U.S. Representative Baron Hill, whom Young had defeated in 2010 to win his congressional seat, but on July 11, Hill announced he was dropping out of the Senate race.[38] Hill was replaced by Evan Bayh, who had held the seat from 1999 to 2011.[39] Young defeated Bayh in the November 8 general election, winning 52% of the vote to Bayh's 42%.[40][41][42]
