Glenn Hammond is an eastern Kentucky native who has dedicated his life to standing up for those who couldn't stand up for themselves. He will continue that same fight against corporate special interests in Frankfort for the people of the mountains and the commonwealth of Kentucky.

Working his way through college, Glenn graduated from the University of Kentucky with a double major in Finance and Management in 1992. He then attended and graduated from the Salmon P. Chase College of Law, and opened a law office here in Eastern Kentucky in 1996.

Glenn is a proud father of two strong and smart daughters, Brianne and Reese. He's spent countless hours guiding them in their academics and extracurricular activities, as he understands the importance of a well-rounded public education for our kids. Glenn is very involved in church and has always volunteered throughout his community to help those in need.

Glenn's family of Blackburns, Bevins, Maynards, Reeds, Hamiltons, Halls, Tacketts, Kisers, Laffertys, Derossets and Hammonds are and have been educators, laborers, miners, entrepreneurs, union members and doctors. His family taught him the value of education, hard work and respect for his fellow man. Glenn's roots and the values instilled by his families have led him to always stand up for what's right for the people of Eastern Kentucky.

Eastern Kentucky Deserves Better. We deserve affordable healthcare, modern infrastructure, good-paying job opportunities, fair wages, solutions to the opioid epidemic, affordable cost of living and representation in Frankfort that fights for the Mountains, not for special interests.

President John F. Kennedy once said, "If the law doesn't apply to everyone, it applies to no one." Eastern Kentucky deserves elected officials who fight for all people of our region, not just special interests or big corporations.
