State Representative Angie King is serving her second term in the Ohio House of Representatives. She represents the 84th Ohio House District, which includes Mercer County, northern Darke County and southern Auglaize County. Representative King is a realtor and small business owner who has been involved in buying, selling, and managing real estate for more than 25 years. Raised on a farm, the eldest of five, King’s character was forged by perseverance and a strong work ethic, shaping her into a dedicated individual with a deep sense of community. She is a former board member of the Ohio Housing Trust Fund Advisory Committee, West Ohio Community Action Partnership and Ohio Board of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology. She previously served as a Celina City Council member for 11 years and served as the Mercer County Recorder from 2013 until she was elected to the House. After discovering her infant daughter was deaf, she became a strong advocate for the deaf and hard of hearing at both the state and national level. She is proud to have played a part in Ohio’s Universal Newborn Hearing Screening legislation and prompted the U.S. Department of Education to update its early intervention language in the Individuals with Disability Education Act (IDEA).
