He was born in the center of the Osaka (the second largest metropolitan area in Japan) in 1972. He graduated from Shumiyoshi High School,^[3] and Kobe University in 1991.^[4]

He was elected to this position in 2014, representing the Kinki region.^[5] Horiuchi is critical of the Prime Minister of Japan Shinzō Abe's plan to reduce the turnover rate of people giving up their jobs to care for the elderly to zero by improving nursing care as unrealistic.
