Dave Reed
Majority Leader of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives
	In office; January 6, 2015 –November 30, 2018

Last updated December 22, 2022

In January 2018, Reed announced he would campaign for the United States Congress in Pennsylvania's 9th congressional district after Bill Shuster announced he would not run for re-election in 2018. However, he ended his campaign several months later when the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania ruled the current district maps illegal and established new district maps. The new maps placed Reed's residence in Indiana, Pennsylvania in a new 15th congressional district alongside current Representative Glenn Thompson.

Personal life

Reed is married to the former Heather Camp, whom he met during his first election campaign. They have a son and two daughters, and reside in White Township, Pennsylvania.^{[ citation needed ]}
