Personal Biography
My name is Jonah Orion Wheeler. I was born in Keene, New Hampshire on the first of March, 2003. I grew up all
across New Hampshire, moving every few months in my childhood. Beginning in Jaffrey, where my family
originates, and ending up in Peterborough. Living in many of our State's beautiful towns in between, with brief
stints in the Seattle area and Maine. I went to many schools during my primary education, but was educated in the
Peterborough Public School system from halfway through the second grade to graduation at ConVal High School.
It was an unconventional, eye-opening, and exciting childhood. Which prepared me for these unconventional,
eye-opening, exciting times. I ran for the legislature because I want this government to be a Republic, of, by, and
for the people. I could either sit back and opine about how that was far from the reality - or I could put myself out
in my community to see if they agreed. They agreed, and I have had the honor of serving Hillsborough County's
33rd district since 2022. I served on the Criminal Justice and Public Safety committee for the 22-24 biennium. I
was moved to the Environment and Agriculture committee for the 24-26 biennium. You can learn more about my
time in office on my website found at jonahwheeler.com.
Local Government Involvement
Serving on the Peterborough Zoning Board of Adjustments.
