Kurt Hayes is a hard working husband, father, and businessperson. Like most voters in the six towns comprising the 37th Middlesex district, Kurt is fed up with the ineffectiveness of our elected leaders in the State House. Spending is out of control, power and back-room politics trump sound legislative judgement, and votes are made under the influence of lobbyists and arm-twisting rather than what is best for the people. Kurt has decided that rather than simply ask, “Why doesn’t somebody do something?”, it is time for him to take action. That is why Kurt is dedicated to earning your vote for the 37th Middlesex district seat in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts House of Representatives.
Independent, Republican, and Democratic voters alike are angry and ready for a break from politics as usual on Beacon Hill. The voters of the 37th Middlesex district deserve a candidate who will stand up and fight for them. Kurt Hayes is that candidate; a commonsense, dedicated man from among the people he will represent. Kurt will commit his time, energy, and skills to standing up for the citizens of Acton (precinct 3, 4, 5), Boxborough, Harvard, Lancaster (precinct 1), Lunenburg, and Shirley.
Kurt’s votes will not be pre-determined by ideology, but by sound judgment and analysis. Kurt has 20 years of professional experience helping businesses improve while also becoming more efficient. Businesses must adopt innovative solutions, transform themselves, and provide a solid return on new investments in order to survive and thrive in the marketplace. Our district needs a strong leader who will take this same commonsense approach to Beacon Hill as he fights for his constituents. Kurt is that leader.
Kurt is the youngest of three boys, born in Peoria, Illinois. Kurt also lived in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Stamford, Connecticut, and Albuquerque, New Mexico during his childhood.
After graduating from college in 1989 (University of New Mexico, Albuquerque) with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business with a focus on Information Technology, Kurt began his career in Dallas/Fort Worth with IBM, the global software, services, and technology company. A job assignment first brought Kurt to New England in 1991. It was during that seven-month stay in the area that Kurt met his future wife, Debbie, a native of Bedford. They married in 1993. In 1995, Kurt landed a new position with IBM that enabled the couple to return to the Boston area.
Kurt, Debbie, two sons, and daughter live in Boxborough.
Kurt enjoys spending time with his wife and children, coaching little league baseball, and watching his children participate in sporting events, musical recitals, and other activities they enjoy.
