State Rep. Jean Schmidt | The Ohio House of Representatives
State Representative Jean Schmidt, a Republican from Loveland, has been appointed as Chair of the House Health Committee for the 136th General Assembly. The appointment was made by Ohio House Speaker Matt Huffman, a Republican from Lima.
“I am looking forward to being the House Health Committee Chairwoman and working on meaningful legislation that my colleagues will bring forward,” said Schmidt. “The health and well-being of all Ohioans is an important issue and I believe this committee will work on passing legislation that improves lives across this state.”
Besides her role as chair of the Health Committee, Schmidt will also serve on the House Finance, Financial Institutions, and Local Government Committees.
“These committees cover issues that every Ohioan deals with daily,” said Schmidt. “I look forward to working with my fellow committee members to produce a fiscally sound state budget, improve upon our state’s financial institutions, and, as a former trustee, ensure our local governments have the resources and laws they need to best represent their constituents.”
