Career

After graduation from the University of Cincinnati, Widener served two terms on the Mad River-Greene Local Board of Education before starting his legislative career. His resume includes a stint as a civil service architect at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, where he also served as the base's first full-time historic preservation officer.

Widener was appointed to his first term as a member of the Ohio House of Representatives in 1999, however, he lost his primary bid for reelection to Merle G. Kearns, a prominent state Senator who was facing term limits. However, after redistricting occurred in 2002, Widener won a term beginning in 2003.

In the 2004 cycle, Widener again faced a primary challenge against fellow Republican Robert Rogers III. He defeated Rogers by about 10,000 votes.[1] He easily won reelection in 2006.

Reed Madden and James Howard, and won about 67% of the electorate.[2] In the general election, Widener faced Clark County Commissioner Roger Tackett.[3] While Democrats initially thought the district as potentially competitive, Widener won by 39,000 votes.[4]

Widener served as Chairman of the Energy & Public Utilities Committee in the 128th General Assembly. In the 129th General Assembly, Senate President Tom Niehaus has named Widener as Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee,[5] as well as a member of the Senate Rules and Reference Committee; Government Oversight and Reform Committee; and Ways and Means and Economic Development Committee.[6] He is also serving on the Controlling Board;[7] and the State Council on Educational Opportunity for Military Children.

With Wright Patterson Air Force Base and the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force in Widener's district, he has introduced a proposal to bring a retired space shuttle to the area after they are taken out of commission. Ohio was ultimately ruled out as a currator Space Shuttle.

Finance and budgetary issues

A Chairman of the Finance Committee, Widener will plays a leading role in shaping the biennium budget. Notable issues will include local government, education, and the privatization measure JobsOhio.[8] With Ohio Governor John Kasich introducing a budget that brings expansive cuts to much of the budget, Widener has presided over one of the more difficult budgets in recent Ohio history.
