He served as President of the Senate for both sessions that I was in the Senate. One thing I can say from that experience is that Scott was one of the purest voters I’ve known, he was firm, yet he was fair to everyone. Scott u...

President Ronald Reagan said, in effect, "do not speak ill of a fellow Republican." HB 658, the Medicaid reform bill...
