Lawrence Joseph Hogan Sr. (September 30, 1928 – April 20, 2017) was an American politician who served as a Republican U.S. representative for the 5th congressional district of Maryland from January 3, 1969, to January 3, 1975.[1][2] In 1974, he was the only Republican Representative to vote to recommend all three House articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon.[3] He was the father of the 62nd governor of Maryland, Larry Hogan.[4]
Hogan did not run for re-election in 1974 and was unsuccessful that year in his candidacy for the Republican nomination for governor. He became county executive for Prince George's County, Maryland, in 1978 and served until 1982.
To date, he is the last Republican to have served as representative from Maryland's 5th congressional district.
