Sen. Tim Scott Announces Presidential Campaign

C-SPAN: Senator Tim Scott (R) announced his candidacy for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination in a rally at Charleston Southern University in North Charleston, SC. He talked about his childhood in a single-parent household in South Carolina, and about his path to Charleston Southern, from which he graduated, and his onward path to the U.S. Senate. Senator Scott also outlined some of the issues he intended to build his campaign around, including championing religious liberty and enacting policies that encouraged work and discouraged use of the safety net. Afterward, he met and took pictures with some of those in the audience. Due to technical difficulties, there was audio loss for a short portion of his remarks.
