Ohio House of Representatives
With incumbent Representative Tom Brinkman unable to run due to term limits, Stautberg and two others sought to replace him. In the primary, Stautberg was narrowly victorious, winning 35% of the electorate.[1] He went on to face Democrat Jeff Sinnard in the general election, and won by about 11,000 votes.[2] He won reelection in 2010.
For the 129th General Assembly, Speaker of the House William G. Batchelder has named Stautberg as a member of the Republican majority caucus' Policy Committee.[3] He also serves as Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, as well as on the committees of Public Utilities, and Financial Institutions, Housing, and Urban Development.
Policies and Positions
In one of his first measures of 2011, Stautberg, along with Tom Letson, has introduced legislation that would ensure that only one state has adult guardianship jurisdiction at any one time over incompetent individuals and specifies a procedure for transferring guardianship to another state.
