Scott Statement After Elected by Colleagues to Serve as Ranking Member of Education and Labor Committee in the 118th Congress

WASHINGTON – Chairman Robert C. “Bobby” Scott (VA-03) released the following statement after he was elected by the House Democratic Caucus to serve as the next Ranking Member of the Committee on Education and Labor.

“Governing should be guided by the values and aspirations we share – improving the lives of people from all walks of life. Regardless of the political challenges that lay ahead in the 118th Congress, the American people are still counting on us to find common ground, when possible; and to protect workplace rights, ensure all students have access to a quality education, expand access to affordable health care, and prepare workers for success in the modern economy.

“As Ranking Member, I will continue working with the Democratic Caucus to fight for policy solutions that put people over politics and contrast House Republicans’ extreme agenda.”
