Michael Blake Tillery (born October 9, 1983) is an American politician who has served in the Georgia State Senate from the 19th district since 2017. In January 2024, Tillery co-sponsored S.B. 390, which would withhold government funding for any libraries in Georgia affiliated with the American Library Association.
