Albert A. Hale is a Democratic politician. He has served as Arizona State Senator for District 2 since 2004.

Hale was elected the second Navajo Nation President in late 1994 by the consent of the Navajo people. He served three years before being indicted for accepting kickbacks, bribes, misuse of government property, and extramarital affairs. He resigned his post to avoid criminal proscution and continued on to be a lawyer. He later made a political comeback as a State Senator.
