          State Sentator Keith Faber, who was recently selected by the Ohio Senate as its new President will be the guest speaker at this year’s Miami County Republican Party Lincoln Day Dinner.  Party officials recently announced that President Faber will address the dinner, which is being held on Saturday, March 23, 2013 at the Piqua Country Club.  Faber represents the 12th State Senate District, encompassing all of Allen, Champaign, Mercer, and Shelby Counties as well as portions of Auglaize, Dark and Logan Counties. Prior to his election to the Senate, Senator Faber served three terms in the Ohio House of Representatives.

          An award-winning fiscal conservative, Senator Faber has been a consistent promoter of jobs and job growth for Ohioans. At the Statehouse, Senator Faber has been a strong advocate for lower taxes, restraint in state spending and an overall smaller, more responsible government. For his efforts, Faber has been named a Watchdog of the Treasury five times (2004, 2006, 2008, 2010 & 2012).   Outside of his legislative duties, Faber is the principal partner with Faber and Associates in Celina, a law firm specializing in civil litigation and mediation, helping courts and parties resolve matters without trial. He earned his law from Ohio State University in 1991. He did his undergraduate work in public administration/policy with a minor in biology, graduating with honors from Oakland University in Michigan in 1988. Senator Faber remains active in the community including holding membership in the Mercer County Republican Party, several different Chambers of Commerce and Farm Bureaus, Celina Moose Lodge, Celina Eagles Lodge, Mercer County and Ohio Right to Life, National Rifle Association, Mercer County Sportsman, Lima Sabres, and also saw two terms on the Mercer/Auglaize YMCA Board of Directors. Senator Faber and his wife Andrea reside just outside Celina in Mercer County with their two young children, Adam and Brooke and attend St. John’s Lutheran Church.
