DAVID SCOTT - CONGRESSMAN, REPRESENTING GEORGIA'S 13TH DISTRICT

Ethics & Lobbying Reform

Previous elections have shown that the American people spoke clearly of their desire for a government with high ethical standards, transparency, disclosure and accountability. I and my colleagues worked to implement reforms in an effort to break the link between lobbyists and legislators by eliminating the acceptance of gifts, private jets and meals from lobbyists. I will continue to vote in support of greater government transparency and high ethical standards for both members of Congress and their staff.
