Scott Gordon Perry (born May 27, 1962) is a United States Representative for Pennsylvania's 10th congressional district.
Politicial Positions
Perry objected to both Arizona and Pennsylvania electoral votes.[1]
Perry is a member of the House Freedom Caucus.
In October 2020, Perry was one of seventeen Republicans who voted against a House resolution to formally condemn the QAnon conspiracy theory.[2] He said he voted against the resolution because he was concerned about infringements on free speech, saying "it's very dangerous for the government ... to determine what is okay to like and what is not okay to like."[3][4]
Perry also voted against condemning the Coup in Myanmar which was also opposed by Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Mary Miller, and Andy Biggs.[5]
