Where they stand
Abortion
Shawn is a proud and loving father of three children ; he doesn’t just support the pro-life cause – he’s lived it.
Source: Stevens for Ohio
Data centers
Career politicians in the legislature have given over $2.5 billion in tax incentives to data centers since 2013. That’s unacceptable at a time when our property taxes are higher than ever.
Source: Stevens for Ohio
Government ethics
While career politicians in Ohio give millions of your dollars to NGOs with ties to those fraudsters, Shawn will go after the waste, fraud, and abuse in those programs and hold anyone who steals from the taxpayers accountable .

Guns
Shawn is also a gun owner who understands that the Second Amendment isn’t just about hunting – it’s about protecting your life, liberty, and property.

Local government
Whether it’s commercial development or data centers, the people who live here deserve a voice in how this community grows and changes

Recorded votes
Shawn Stevens cast 157 Yea or Nay votes on the roll calls we hold, across 1 term from 2021 to 2022, all in the Ohio General Assembly, from the Ohio Legislature. Each term opens to every roll call, with the question, the result, how Shawn Stevens voted and how the majority of their party voted.
| Term | Chamber | Yea | Nay | Did not vote | With party |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 134th General Assembly, 2021–2022 | Ohio House, district 68 | 154 | 3 | not recorded | 100% of 39 |
"With party" counts only roll calls on which most Republicans and most Democrats voted opposite ways. The Ohio Legislature records who voted Yea and who voted Nay and no one else, so an absence cannot be told from an abstention and neither is counted; only floor votes are listed.
