Congressman David Scott (D-GA) was recently recognized by Georgia Trend Magazine as one of the 100 Most Influential Georgians.  This honor comes as a result of Congressman Scott’s hard work, achievements and influence as a United States Congressman. 

The ninth edition of Georgia Trend’s 100 Most Influential Georgians spotlights individuals who have been tested over time and are playing major roles in shaping the world we live in, and the way we think and feel.  Georgia Trend recognized Congressman Scott’s ability to overcome a dwindling Democratic presence in Republican Georgia, as he won re-election with almost 70 percent of the vote in a district marked by drastic change in recent years.   Georgia Trend also took note of Scott’s long-standing experience in Georgia’s legislature and his ability to use his experience to gain continued influence within the U.S. House of Representatives.

“When Georgia Trend Magazine recognizes David Scott, it recognizes a whole bunch of people who have been supporting me throughout my entire life,” said Scott.  “I am truly humbled to be recognized as one of Georgia’s 100 Most Influential people and I am continually thankful to my loving and supportive family and God for walking with me throughout the days of my life.  Without Him, I could not have survived all that I have had to survive.”
