Scott Cepicky, Tennessee Congressman, District 64
Scott’s story is the American story — values from the heartland, a middle-class upbringing in a strong family, hard work and education as the means of getting ahead, and the conviction that a life so blessed should be lived in service to others.
Scott worked his way through college with the help of an athletic scholarship for both football and baseball at the University of Wisconsin- Madison. He majored in history, having always had a desire to learn about the great leaders and circumstances of the past, so that he might one day, if so called, help build a better future. After college, Scott played professional baseball for the Chicago White Sox and the Minnesota Twins. He also played professional football for the Cincinnati Bengals and Minnesota Vikings.
Once Scott’s professional sports career came to a close he returned to his roots and took over the leadership of a 1200-acre ranch with more than 550 head of cattle. Just a few years later he and Teresa took control of their own cattle ranch and successfully operated a 100 head cow/calf operation for many years until the birth of their children. Currently Scott is in the mortgage loan department of Regions Bank.
Having settled in Middle Tennessee many years ago he and his wife Teresa are raising their family in Northern Maury County. They regularly attend and are members of First Family Baptist Church in Columbia, TN. Scott has played a major role in Maury county politics and was a member of the Maury County Commission. He was integral in proposing and getting funding for the county website, fighting the landfill, and protecting the Duck River. He served on the Budget Committee in 2011-2012 when Maury county posted its lowest deficit in a decade and produced a surplus at the end of the year of $1,200,000. His most important piece of legislation was his proposal to protect the 2nd amendment rights of Maury county citizens. Scott believes in open and transparent government.
Scott took office in the Tennessee House of Representatives on November 6, 2018. He is currently a member of the Education Committee, Insurance Committee, Education Administration Subcommittee, and the Tenncare Subcommittee.
