Clay Scofield is an American politician. A Republican, he served as a member of the Alabama State Senate from the 9th District from 2010 to 2023.
In May 2019, he voted to make abortion a crime at any stage in a pregnancy, with no exemptions for cases of rape or incest. The bill had no penalty for the mother, just for the doctor.
Scofield resigned from the Alabama Senate in October 2023 to become the executive vice president of the Business Council of Alabama.
