Charles Floyd Hatcher (born July 1, 1939) is an American politician and lawyer from the U.S. state of Georgia. He served in Congress as a Democrat.
He was born in Doerun, Georgia and served in the United States Air Force from 1958 to 1962 reaching the rank of Airman Second Class.[1] After his military service, he attended Georgia Southern College in Statesboro in 1965 and then entered the University of Georgia School of Law in Athens. Hatcher graduated with a Juris Doctor degree in 1969, became a member of the state bar, and started practicing law in Albany, Georgia.

Hatcher ran an unsuccessful bid for re-election in 1992, losing the Democratic primary to Sanford Bishop, in part because of the House banking scandal.
