Hackett Update

Paul Hackett is moving on after being pushed out of his Senate race...

PAUL HACKETT JOINS BOARD OF IRAQ AND AFHGANISTAN VETS PAC

Cites need to provide candidates early support that he never got from the party

Citing the need to help other candidates in the same situation he was in, former candidate for the US Senate Seat in Ohio and Iraq Veteran Paul Hackett is announcing his decision to join Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America Political Action Committee (IAVA PAC) today, as a member of the group's Board of Advisors. IAVA PAC will benefit those candidates, who like Hackett, are Iraq or Afghanistan Veterans seeking to continue their service to their country by seeking elected office.

"Anyone who was upset about what happened to my Senate campaign should support IAVA PAC to help ensure it happens to no one else," said Hackett...

Good for him.
