Bio:

Paul Hackett's life is one of service, commitment, and responsibility.

Paul first became familiar with the people, as well as the nooks and crannies of the seven counties that make up Ohio's 2nd Congressional district, by traveling as a boy with his father, a traveling salesman.

It was his father who taught him to respect this state and this country while his mother taught him that serving your community is fulfilling.

Paul committed to that respect and sense of service by joining the U. S. Marine Corps as a young man. He also committed to his own sense of learning by graduating from law school.

By 1992 Paul had met and married Suzi, become a part of the Select Marine Corps Reserve and founded his own law firm, Hackett Law Offices.

As an active member of his neighborhood, a husband, and a small business owner, Paul became acutely aware of his community. He was disgusted by many of the things he saw in his own city council meetings and, feeling the need to do his part serving his community, chose to take a more active role by running for, and becoming a member of the Milford City Council, taking charge, and restoring order.

Then and now, Paul is a strong proponent for using our tax dollars responsibly, most notably to provide affordable healthcare, ensuring that our children are delivered a better America. That includes spending less on corporate welfare, and more support for small businesses that are primed to take the next step up the ladder.

Last year, Paul heard the call to service again. As his Marine Corps brothers fought a half world away, Paul could not sit in the comfort of his home and let others do the work he was prepared to do. After a serious discussion with his wife and children, Paul re-upped and joined his marines for a seven month tour with the 1st Marine Division and served as a Civil Affairs officer in Ramadi, took part in the Fallujah campaign and subsequent reconstruction.

When Paul returned only a few weeks ago, he learned of Rob Portman's decision to vacate his congressional seat. Paul Hackett is continuing his service to his country by running for the United State Congress.

As a candidate for the United States Congress, Paul Hackett is fighting for the people of Southern Ohio. Not for the red. Not for the blue. For the red, white and blue.

Paul Hackett is a father, a husband, a small business owner, a Marine, and a candidate for the United States Congress. He would appreciate your vote on August 2nd.
