SOUTH BEND, Ind.—Pat Hackett, an attorney and teacher, has filed papers to run for Indiana’s 2nd District congressional seat.
Hackett, a Democrat, is challenging current Republican incumbent Jackie Walorski for the position.
On Wednesday, Hackett was live in ABC57’s studio to discuss her campaign, commenting on issues like healthcare, advocacy, and the current impeachment trial against President Donald Trump.
“I am running because the House of Representatives is the people’s house and we’re going to reclaim our voice and our values in Washington,” Hackett said.
Hackett is an adjunct assistant professor at the Notre Dame Law School and runs her own firm, Hackett & Associates.
