Scott Gordon Perry is an American politician and retired Army National Guard brigadier general. He is the U.S. representative for Pennsylvania's 10th congressional district, and a member of the Republican Party.
He was born in San Diego, California, to Cecile Lenig and Jim Perry. Scott's grandparents were Colombian immigrants. His mother was a flight attendant and left an abusive relationship with his father after he was born.
His family were on public assistance for several years during his youth. He was raised in a simple home that had no electricity or plumbing, pumping water from a well and cutting firewood with his older brother in the winter.
He began working at age 13, picking fruit at Ashcombe's Farm in Mechanicsburg. Since then, he has worked as a mechanic, dock worker, draftsman and a licensed insurance agent, among other jobs.
On December 5, 2024, House lawmakers argued over the possible inclusion of a question on U.S. citizenship in the forthcoming decennial census in 2030. Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) said counting illegal immigrants without including a citizenship question was akin to allowing a stranger to reside in one’s house and take their point of view into consideration on household decisions.
