Representative Adam Mathews - District 56

LEBANON, OH – State Representative and attorney Adam Mathews today called for the immediate resignation of Judge Ted Berry following a series of public comments on social media about the tragic death of Charlie Kirk. The statements, which celebrated the death with vitriolic, racially charged, and political language, represent a serious violation of the ethical standards required of every judge in Ohio.

State Representatives David Thomas (R-Jefferson) and Adam Mathews (R-Lebanon) today announced that they introduced the Senior Protection from Foreclosure Act – the first legislation of its kind in the nation. The bill would prevent a senior homeowner from being foreclosed upon for delinquent property taxes. The sponsors shared that the goal of this legislation is to codify existing standard practices across Ohio to keep elderly residents in their home regardless of property tax delinquencies. 

State Representative Adam Mathews (R-Lebanon) attended the White House State Leadership Conference last week alongside more than 50 Ohio lawmakers and other officials. The conference was organized by the White House Office of Intergovernmental Affairs to foster collaboration and communication between federal, state and local governments, while providing a forum to discuss shared priorities, policies, and more.

State Representative Adam Mathews (R-Lebanon) announced that the Ohio House of Representatives approved the conference committee report for Am. Sub. House Bill 96 –the State Operating Budget. The budget plan, which allocates funding for state programs and operations for the next two years, includes provisions that aim to protect freedom, family and fiscal responsibility – implementing a flat income tax, expanding school choice, funding our public schools, and promoting housing development.
