Timeline
Porter Hardy Jr. (June 1, 1903 – April 19, 1995) was a farmer, businessman and Democrat politician who represented Virginia's 2nd congressional district in the United States House of Representatives for more than two decades, including supporting the Byrd Organization during Massive Resistance.
Born in Bon Air, Virginia, Hardy attended public schools and Randolph-Macon Academy in Bedford, Virginia.
He graduated from Boykins High School in 1918, and from Randolph-Macon College, Ashland, Virginia, in 1922, then attended the Graduate School of Business Administration at Harvard University in 1923 and 1924.
Hardy worked as an accountant and warehouse manager in New York City and Norfolk, Virginia from 1924 to 1927.
He then became a wholesaler of electrical equipment in Salisbury, Maryland from 1927 to 1932, before moving to Churchland, Virginia, in 1932, to farm.
Although the Byrd Organization controlled much of the state, the Congressional District that included the cities of Norfolk, Portsmouth and Suffolk and Norfolk, Nansemond, Suffolk, Isle of Hardy and Princess Anne Counties had elected five different congressmen in the previous decade, a national record that Hardy ended.
He won election to the Eightieth and ten succeeding Congresses (January 3, 1947 – January 3, 1969) before announcing his retirement after 22 years.
Hardy investigated waste in federal operations as chairman of the House Armed Services Sub-committee.
As did other Byrd Organization members, Hardy signed the 1956 Southern Manifesto that opposed the desegregation of public schools ordered by the Supreme Court in Brown v. Board of Education.
He also voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964, but unlike any other Byrd Organization member voted for the Twenty-fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution.
After his legislative retirement as the Byrd Organization collapsed, Hardy continued to serve as a director of Dominion Bankshares Corporation and other Virginia financial institutions.
He died April 19, 1995, and was interred at Eastern Shore Chapel Cemetery, in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
