Clay Scofield is an American politician.[1] A Republican, he served as a member of the Alabama State Senate from the 9th District from 2010 to 2023.[2]

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.[3]

Scofield resigned from the Alabama Senate in October 2023 to become the executive vice president of the Business Council of Alabama.[4]
