WASHINGTON, D.C. –
Regina Holman Promoted to District Director
Since joining Congressman Turner’s staff in 2015, Regina Holman has become one of the district’s most reliable connectors—linking families to federal resources, ensuring local leaders are heard, and helping keep the office grounded in what people are facing day to day. Her work has helped turn community needs into measurable outcomes, and her leadership has shaped initiatives that continue to strengthen the district.
The list of Holman’s accomplishments is long, including helping found the Foster Care Program in Ohio’s 10th, serving as Chairwoman of the Opioid Task Force, launching and hosting ten annual Ohio Defense Forums, and chairing the Dayton Fountain Task Force to restore a community landmark. She also started the Congressional Community Service Award for African Americans in Ohio’s 10th, led the HPSCI annual training retreats during Turner’s tenure as Chairman, and spearheaded efforts around Community Project Funding, helping identify local priorities and support the return of nearly $200 million in federal funding to the district since FY 2023.
Of significant note, Holman was instrumental in the tremendous success of the 2025 NATO Parliamentary Assembly Spring Session in Dayton as the point person on the ground. Holman was key in coordinating all the fine details and ensuring that every event ran smoothly and that all dignitaries and attendees were taken care of.
“Regina has a gift for bringing people together and getting things done,” Congressman Turner said. “She is one of the most effective advocates for our community.”
Before joining Congressman Turner’s district team, Regina Holman spent 31 years serving the City of Dayton, holding multiple leadership positions before retiring, including Interim Director for the Department of Aviation. Throughout her career, she has served the community well beyond her formal roles—participating in civic boards and initiatives that strengthened Dayton’s visibility and impact, including service on the University of Dayton National Alumni Association Board of Directors, the Miami Valley First Four Organizing Committee, the United Negro College Fund Telethon, and the National Academies Airport Cooperative Research Program. A committed volunteer, Holman has also supported community efforts with the Dayton Contemporary Dance Company and the NAACP Dayton Unit Candidates Forum.
Frank DeBrosse Promoted to Chief of Staff
Frank DeBrosse has spent more than two decades serving the people of Ohio and has been with Congressman Turner’s office since 2016, earning a reputation as a steady hand and a trusted leader. In his new role as Chief of Staff, DeBrosse will lead the office’s Washington and district operations, building on years of experience navigating complex challenges while keeping the focus on practical outcomes for Ohio’s 10th.
DeBrosse has played a central role in key initiatives that have strengthened the district’s economy, infrastructure, and civic institutions. His work includes helping form the Wright-Patterson Council of Governments, supporting efforts to recapitalize funding for the Dayton Dragons stadium, and helping convene and organize a water quality panel during a time of community concern—bringing together leaders to investigate issues and drive solutions. He also supported efforts to double jobs at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. DeBrosse has been a consistent lynchpin in ensuring community needs are heard and addressed in Dayton and across the district.
“Having Frank DeBrosse as my Chief of Staff in Washington, with his knowledge of the district, D.C., and years of experience, will be important,” Congressman Turner said. “I’m proud to have him step into this role.”
Jason Galanes Departs for NATO Parliamentary Assembly Role in Brussels
As Congressman Turner announces these promotions within his office, he is also proud to announce that Jason Galanes, who has served as Congressman Turner’s Chief of Staff since March 2022 and Secretary to the U.S. Delegation to NATO, will depart the office to join the NATO Parliamentary Assembly in Brussels as Director of Strategic Partnerships & Training Programmes.
“Jason’s new portfolio at the NATO Parliamentary Assembly builds directly on the leadership he demonstrated during the NATO PA Spring 2025 Session in Dayton. He helped make the Dayton Spring Session a success, and NATO PA noticed,” said Congressman Turner. “His work with our partners and his leadership of the U.S. Delegation’s support team demonstrated the exact skill set this new position requires. I am proud of him and congratulate him on this next assignment.”
In this role, Galanes will work with the NATO PA International Secretariat to strengthen partnerships with NATO partner nations and support parliamentary cooperation across the Alliance. He will continue to work with many of the same countries in the Balkans, other NATO-aspiring countries, and transatlantic- and democracy-oriented think tank organizations.
During his time on staff with Congressman Turner, Galanes led the office through major national security and NATO engagement priorities. He also played a central role in delivering the NATO Parliamentary Assembly’s Spring 2025 Session in Dayton—the first Spring Session ever held in the United States and the first NATO PA session held in the U.S. in more than twenty years. The five-day session, held in connection with the 30th anniversary commemoration of the Dayton Peace Accords, brought together parliamentarians from 45 countries, welcomed NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, included presidents or prime ministers from seven Balkan countries, and drew 2,400 credentialed guests, including 300 international journalists.
Congressman Turner offered his congratulations to Jason, Frank, and Regina, noting that he is confident his office will continue to deliver with excellence through this transition as he continues his work for the people of Ohio’s 10th Congressional District.
