Boehner Statement on Sen. George Voinovich’s Retirement
Jan 12, 2009
Washington -
Congressman John Boehner (R-West Chester) released the following statement today regarding the decision by Sen. George Voinovich (R-OH) to retire after more than 40 years of public service to the Buckeye State:
“For more than 40 years, Sen. George Voinovich has selflessly served the people of Ohio. I join millions of Ohioans today in saluting him for his decades of service to the Buckeye State, and for his unwavering commitment to defending the sanctity of innocent human life. His voice and friendship will be missed in the Ohio delegation. I wish George, Janet, and their family the very best.”
Boehner represents Ohio’s 8th District, which includes all of Darke, Miami and Preble counties, most of Butler and Mercer counties, and the northeastern corner of Montgomery County. He was first elected to Congress in 1990.
