She served on the West Linn City Council from 1976 to 1980. Hooley was elected to the Oregon State Legislature and served as a State Representitive from 1980 to 1986.

Congressional career
2006 elections
In 2006, Republicans nominated Mike Erickson to face Hooley in her November 2006 bid for reelection. (See U.S. congressional elections in 2006) [1] Hooley retained her seat.
Retirement
On February 7, 2008, Hooley announced she would not seek reelection in 2008, and would retire at the end of her term. She said that demands of 23 years in public service were a factor in her decision, noting that "At some point in everybody's life you have to decide, how much longer do I want to do this?"[2]
