William (Bill) Roemer (born August 21, 1956) is a member of the Ohio House of Representatives, since 2019, representing the 31st district. The district encompasses the majority of western and northern Summit county. A Republican, he is serving his third term in the House of Representatives.




Election History, committee assignments, and notable legislation


In 2010, Roemer ran for Summit County Council at large and was successful. He served 4 years and then, in 2015 ran for the Summit Educational Services Center Board of Governors winning the election. In 2016, Roemer ran for Summit County Executive, but lost. Two years later when state Representative Marilyn Slaby announced that she would not seek reelection, Roemer announced his candidacy for her state House seat. He would easily win the seat against Democrat Elliott Kolkovich with 58% of the vote.
In 2020, he handily defeated fellow Richfield resident Democrat Joe Campbell 61% to 39% and, in 2022, defeated Rita Darrow 52% to 48%. He serves as Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee and then serves as a member on the Behavioral Health, Commerce and Labor, and Financial Institutions Committees. During his time in the House, Roemer has had several bills passed into law primarily dealing with healthcare, taxation, and regulatory reform.
In 2022, Roemer passed the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) Act. PACE is a managed care model that provides participants with needed medical care in multiple settings. The PACE Act will expand Medicaid to ensure the elderly can stay in their homes and have more options to save on burdensome costs for their care. Among his many accomplishments, Roemer was also the primary sponsor of HB 558 allowing for unused prescription drugs to be safely donated by end users to charitable pharmacies and non-profit clinics. This enables Ohioans to cut down on drug waste and improve access to life-saving medications for uninsured and underinsured patients.
