Former 3-Star Admiral Joe Sestak served 31 years in the Navy before returning home to successfully run for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 7th District. Presently serving his second term in Congress, Joe is the most senior military veteran serving in Congress, and is the highest-ranking military officer ever elected to Congress. He commanded the U.S.S. George Washington aircraft carrier battle group (30 ships/100 aircraft/15,000 Sailors, Marines, Aviators, SEALs) that conducted combat operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. Joe served as President Clinton’s Director for Defense Policy on the National Security Council in the White House. After 9/11, Joe was the first Director of “Deep Blue,” the Navy’s anti-terrorism unit. He served as Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Warfare Requirements and Programs, responsible for the Navy’s $70 billion warfare budget. Joe graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy (2nd in his class) and earned a Ph.D. in Political Economy and Government from Harvard University.

Joe is one of the leading figures for the Democrats on national security and domestic issues. Joe’s thoughtful approach to issues, his deep knowledge and broad perspective, and his life experience have made him a leading voice in Congress. He has appeared on national shows such as Meet The Press with Tim Russert; This Week with George Stephanopoulos; State of the Union with John King; Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer; Hardball with Chris Matthews; Hannity & Colmes; HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher; Late Night on PBS with Tavis Smiley; and Comedy Central’s Colbert Report. Joe twice delivered the Democratic Party’s National Radio Address in response to President Bush’s weekly radio address.
