==Career==
Beginning in 1969 a teenaged Finnegan – then still known as Michael Myvett – was an anti-Vietnam War protestor affiliated with the Ad Hoc Committee for the Truth About Vietnam co-founded by future Prime Minister Said Musa. In 1970 Finnegan became a member of the United Black Association for Development, but by late 1972 had become estranged from UBAD president Evan X Hyde. Finnegan then became a political protege of Dean Lindo, an early UDP leader, and joined the UDP as an original member when the party was founded in 1973. Finnegan already had a reputation as a gifted street campaigner by this time. Finnegan worked as a UDP activist throughout the rest of the 1970s and 1980s.〔〔Hyde, Evan X, ("From The Publisher" ) ''Amandala'', 24 October 2008. (accessed 10 May 2015)〕
Finnegan was first elected to the Belize House of Representatives from the Belize City-based Mesopotamia constituency, a safe UDP seat, in 1993.〔(General Elections 1993 ), Belize Elections and Boundaries Commission. (accessed 19 November 2014)〕 Finnegan was one of only two UDP House members re-elected in 1998 (current Prime Minister Dean Barrow was the other) and one of only three successful UDP candidates nationwide.〔(General Elections 1998 ), Belize Elections and Boundaries Commission. (accessed 19 November 2014)〕 Finnegan has been re-elected with at least 60 percent of the vote in every election since.
In the Belize House Finnegan is noted for his lively, uncensored debate style as well as his liberal use of Belizean Creole.〔("Finnegan gets nasty with Dolores in the House" ), Great Belize Television, 8 August 2013. (accessed 9 May 2015)〕
