Former Rep. Michelle Schneider enters state senate race
Former state Rep. Michelle Schneider made it official on Wednesday, Jan. 6 - she took out petitions to run for the Republican nomination for the 7th District State Senate seat.
The district includes Warren County and parts of eastern Hamilton County.
Her entry makes a primary likely against incumbent Republican Sen. Shannon Jones of Springboro. Jones was appointed to the Senate seat last August to fill the vacancy caused by the death of former Sen. Robert Schuler.
Schneider, 55, also sought the Senate appointment that went to Jones.
A former Madeira mayor and council member, Schneider served four terms in the Ohio House. She is president and owner of Hillebrand Home Health and owner of Hillebrand Nursing and Rehab Center.
“I’m the only candidate who has owned and operated a business for 30 years,” said Schneider.
Meanwhile, Jones said she welcomed “anyone who wishes to run into the mix and I’m hopeful for a very vigorous debate on the issues.”
