Jonathan Dever (born November 28, 1972) is the Representative for the 28th district of the Ohio House of Representatives. Dever was raised in Montgomery, Ohio and went on to graduate with a BA from University of Cincinnati, an MILR from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and a JD from Capital University Law School. He has since started the Dever Law Firm in Cincinnati, where he lives with his wife and two sons.[1] In 2014, Dever opted to run for the Ohio House of Representatives in the 28th district, which had been represented by Democrat Connie Pillich for the past six years. In a close primary, Dever prevailed by 66 votes.[2] He would go on to face Democrat Micah Kamrass, in what would be one of the closest watched state House races of the cycle.[3] He would ultimately defeat Kamrass 56%-44% to take the seat.
Representative Dever was appointed by the Speaker to serve on Ways and Means Committee, Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, Judiciary Committee, Community and Family Advancement Committee, and the Sub-Committee on Minority Affairs.
