About John

Representative John Spiros began his career by serving 6 years in the United States Air Force. While in the service, John was a member of an elite security squad at Offutt Air Force Base Nebraska, where he was tasked with protecting the 26 generals and the command center for the Strategic Air Command. After his time in the Air Force, John served as a police officer before beginning his career in the transportation industry. It was his career in transportation that brought him to his adopted home in Marshfield, WI. He is a member of the Marathon County Farm Bureau and the Marshfield Elks Lodge 665.

John was first elected to the State Assembly in 2012, having served the previous 8 years on the Marshfield City Council. He currently serves as the Chairman of the Assembly Committee on Criminal Justice & Public Safety and has served in various leadership roles on the Assembly Committees on Transportation, Ways and Means, and the powerful Joint Committee for Review of Administrative Rules- a key tool in preventing the Democrats’ far-left agenda from becoming a reality. John also serves on the WI Transportation Projects Commission and is Wisconsin’s Commissioner at the Midwest Interstate Passenger Rail Commission. Through his work with the World Hellenic Inter-parliamentary Association, John has worked with legislators from all over the world to promote and preserve Hellenic culture globally.

Together, John and his wife, Rebecca, have 5 adult children and 5 grandchildren. John continues his work in the transportation industry as a Vice President for Roehl Transport in Marshfield. From 2015 to 2017, he served as the President of the Transportation Industry Defense Association and was named the 2009 American Trucking Association’s National Safety Director of the Year. In his free time, John enjoys spending time with his grandchildren, cheering on the Badgers, golfing, and traveling with his wife.
