Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine

Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine
Mike DeWine started his career in public service in the Greene County Prosecutor's Office, where he was elected Prosecutor in 1976. "In his heart, Mike has always been a Prosecutor," says Fran DeWine, his bride of 48 years. "Every problem that exists in your county eventually comes across the Prosecutor's desk. What he learned there shaped his judgment - and it is where his commitment to protecting Ohio families and children first began."
Mike has served as an Ohio State Senator, as a Member of the U.S. House of Representatives, as Ohio Lieutenant Governor, and as a U.S. Senator. In each of the offices he has held, he has focused particular attention on efforts to protect children, ranging from making sure the prescriptions kids take are safe and effective to helping foster children get into permanent, stable, loving homes. He wrote Ohio's first truly tough drunk driving law. He has been a leading proponent for highway safety. And, he has been a staunch advocate for victims of crime. Now, as Ohio's 50th Attorney General, Mike continues his commitment to families. "Mike loves his job!" says Fran. "Each day," according to Mike, "I have the chance to help people - whether it is testing DNA evidence for victims of crime, warning the elderly about grandparent scams, training and assisting local law enforcement, or fighting the prescription drugs and heroin epidemic. I get to wake up every morning, go to work, and help protect Ohio families. I couldn't ask for a better job!"
