Federal Government Shutdown

WASHINGTON, DC - Congressman Robert C. "Bobby" Scott issued the following statement concerning the operation of his congressional office during the current Federal Government Shutdown:

"Due to the ongoing shutdown of the Federal Government, my district offices in Newport News and Richmond are closed. My Washington Office is open but with a skeleton staff. I encourage you to weigh in about how the shutdown is impacting you, your families, and your neighbors through my website, Facebook page, and on Twitter. It is my hope that this shutdown will not be unnecessarily drawn out and that the Republican leadership will bring a clean continuing resolution to the floor for a vote as soon as possible."
