VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. – Republican State Delegate Scott Taylor announced that he is running for Congress today.

His announcement comes just days after Congressman Scott Rigell made it official that he will not seek re-election.

Taylor discussed his plans to run and collected signatures on Saturday afternoon at Keagan’s in Town Center.

“We’re going to continue gage the community and see what they want,” he says. “If they want somebody like me to represent them, then I will humbly accept.”

The former Navy SEAL currently represents the 85th district in the Virginia House of Delegates.
