  1. Our schools, and especially our elementary schools, are meant to be sanctuaries of peace and safety. Words alone cannot describe the anguish of this shocking tragedy that the community of Newtown, Connecticut and our entire nation are feeling at this moment. My thoughts and prayers are with all the students, parents, and teachers of Sandy Hook Elementary.
  2. Today I testified, along with Rep. Danny Davis of Illinois, before the Senate Judiciary Committee on ending the "cradle-to-prison pipeline." More information on my testimony and proposal to help end the "pipeline," The Youth PROMISE Act, can be found at http://bobbyscott.house.gov/ypa

  5. Reminder that I'll be hosting a forum tonight in Norfolk on voting irregularities.

  11. Today, I spent the morning volunteering at the Central Virginia Food Bank with Governor Bob McDonnell and Congressman Eric Cantor. The Central Virginia Food Bank, their dedicated volunteers, and all those who have donated are an excellent example of service to our neighbors in need.
