Ohio’s Legislative leaders voice their support for
Rep. Robin Belcher’s campaign

CLEVELAND – Ohio House Speaker Armond Budish joined with other legislative leaders in voicing their support for Ohio State Rep. Robin Belcher’s re-election campaign.

“We need more people like Robin in Columbus – someone who is committed to serving the residents of her district and works tirelessly doing so,” says Speaker Budish. “She has the background and smarts that make her not just an able legislator but also a serious and dedicated representative of her community.”

Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern added, “Representative Belcher epitomizes what the Ohio House and the 10th House District needs – new effective ideas, an impressive legal mind and a willingness to roll up her sleeves, get in the trenches and get the work done.”

Other colleagues in the State House indicated that Rep. Belcher has been a well respected member of the House.

According to House Majority Leader Tracy Heard, “There is a reason why our caucus selected Robin Belcher to represent Ohio’s 10th House District. Look at what she brings to the table: not only is she intelligent, bright and articulate, but she also has the legal background and relevant experience that will serve all of us well in the Statehouse.”

“I’ve had the honor and privilege of serving with State Representative Robin Belcher in the Ohio Legislature for almost a year now. She is an outstanding member of the Ohio House and she serves and represents the interest of the people of House District 10 and Northeast Ohio well,” said Ohio State Rep. Timothy DeGeeter. “The voters of House District 10 would be well served in casting their votes for State Representative Robin Belcher in the May 4th primary election.”
