Connecting Congress: Rep. Garrett

U.S. RepresentativeScott Garrett (R-NJ 5th) connects his job in Washington with the people he represents in Bergen County.

When asked about the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, Congressman Garrett said he doesn't have an official position at this time, but his "general gut reaction" is that it's hard to say whether there will be any "unintended casualties to the American worker if it goes through as it is."

This backbone was a gift to Congressman Garrett from a constituent. It represents the tough choices he’s made on New Jersey’s behalf and is a reminder of what it takes to be strong and stand up for his constituents with every vote. It sits about three feet from the Congressman’s desk in his Washington, D.C. office so he can see it every day. (The Office of Congressman Garrett)
