Carter, Sr. (D-LA) issued the following statement after the announcement that Congressman David Scott (D-GA) passed away: “I am deeply saddened by the loss of Congressman David Scott, and my heart is with his family, staff, and the constituents he faithfully served. I had the privilege of witnessing firsthand his unwavering commitment to public service and his deep love for the people of Georgia. David Scott was a true trailblazer. Coming from humble beginnings, he made history as the first African American to chair the House Agriculture Committee, an achievement that reflected his tenacity and dedication to expanding opportunity for all. Over nearly five decades in elected office, he never lost sight of who he was fighting for. He will be remembered for his perseverance, leadership, and service. May we honor his life by continuing the work he championed.” ### | 1 | 2026-05-06T06:05:57Z | 2026-05-06T06:07:49Z |
