John Boehner BIOGRAPHY

Last Updated : 27 Jan 2025
John Andrew Boehner: A Republican Leadership Legacy Born in 1949, John Boehner served as the 53rd Speaker of the US House of Representatives, a position he held from 2011 to 2015. A long-standing Republican representative, he served thirteen terms (1991-2015) representing a district encompassing rural and suburban areas near Cincinnati and Dayton. Boehner's career saw a steady rise through the Republican ranks. He served as House Majority Leader from 2006 to 2007, before becoming House Minority Leader from 2007 to 2011. His election as Speaker in 2011 marked a significant milestone. He was re-elected twice but ultimately resigned in October 2015 amidst internal Republican party divisions. Post-political life saw Boehner join Squire Patton Boggs, a prominent lobbying firm, and assume a board membership at Reynolds American. While specific policy positions would require further elaboration, his tenure as Speaker involved navigating complex legislative challenges and internal party dynamics within the Republican caucus. His legacy reflects both leadership within the Republican party and the internal struggles he faced during his time in office.
