When the 115th U.S. Congress was sworn in this week, one of its new members was Dr. Neal Dunn, representing Florida’s second district, which includes Taylor County.

Dunn won election in November to replace outgoing Congresswoman Gwen Graham, who decided to not run for re-election after the district was redrawn by the Florida Supreme Court in late 2015.
