TUPELO, Miss (WCBI) – Congressman-elect Trent Kelly took a ceremonial oath of office on Monday morning in Tupelo.

Kelly was surrounded by his family, along with community leaders and other politicians.

The event was held at the Lee County Justice Complex.

Kelly thanked everyone for their support.

He will serve out the remainder of the late Congressman Alan Nunnelee’s term, which ends in 2017.

Kelly says he will have a busy first couple of weeks on Capitol Hill.

“You know, I’ll have to get acclimated. I’ll have to meet with the leadership. I’ll have to see what bills and things we have coming forward this week, just to get to work and represent the people of Mississippi,” said Kelly.

Kelly’s official swearing-in will be Tuesday evening at the U.S. Capitol.
