He worked as a professor and dean at several universities in Georgia. He authored bills and voted on issues related to agriculture, armed forces and national security, civil liberties, economics, education, energy, environment, government, guns, health, immigration, tax, technology, and welfare/poverty during his time in Congress. He lost his bid for re-election in 2004. After leaving Congress he returned to work in academia as well as taking on some governmental and political roles.
