People From Lebanon, Ohio
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility.

This district was once represented by President William Henry Harrison. Since redistricting in 2010, the district was widely seen as heavily gerrymandered by state Republicans to protect the incumbent, Steve Chabot. However, Chabot lost the seat in 2022 to Democrat Greg Landsman. The new district includes all of Warren County, a much more heavily Republican area. Previous iterations of the district did not include Warren County.
