Post-campaign

After withdrawing from the Senate race, Paul Hackett joined the Advisory Board of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America political action committee (PAC) to support his fellow veterans running for Congress.

Hackett has also done some talk radio by substituting for Jerry Springer on his Air America Radio show Springer on the Radio, as well as for Ed Schultz on his show. It is not known whether Hackett wishes to continue working in talk radio.

On May 30, 2006, Hackett filed a class action lawsuit against the United States Department of Veterans Affairs over the compromise of personal information of 26.5 million veterans which may have fallen into the hands of a thief.

On February 17, 2010, Hackett endorsed Surya Yalamanchili in the Democratic primary for the Second District of Ohio.
