Happy to meet with GA Ports Authority! The Port of Savannah is a gateway for GA's industries. I'm working in Congress to get it the resources needed to secure, develop & maintain it. This major hub connects our farmers, manufacturers & businesses to markets across the world!

Georgia’s Sanford Bishop, Jr. & Rep. Austin Scott stand with other members of Congress to pay respects to Col. Puckett

It was an honor to join Col. Puckett’s family & the Korean War Veterans Memorial Foundation this morning, along with leaders form the US Army & the Congressional Medal of Honor Society for a wreath laying ceremony marking the Colonel’s remarkable life and service to our country.

Rep. Donald Payne, Jr., had the heart of a public servant & was a compassionate, affable soul who loved his family and community. My wife, Vivian, and I as well as the countless people whose lives he touched will miss him deeply and mourn his loss.
