Since becoming a member the U.S. House of Representatives in 2013, his priorities have been to fix a broken Congress, create high-quality jobs, keep America safe, keep our promises to our veterans, make college more affordable for middle-class families, and comprehensive immigration reform. Scott has a solid reputation as someone who is willing to reach across the aisle and achieve bipartisan solutions to tough problems.
