Tim Scott ended his presidential campaign on November 12, 2023.


“ I rose from a child of poverty to a candidate for president of the United States because we chose patriotism over pity and to be victors, not victims. Made in America. That's my story. That's why it pains my soul to see the Biden liberals attacking every rung of the ladder that helped me climb.[1][2] ”
—Tim Scott (May 2023)


Tim Scott (R) was a U.S. Senator from South Carolina. He had served in the position since 2013. Scott announced his candidacy for the 2024 presidential election on May 22, 2023, and suspended his candidacy on November 12, 2023.[3][4] He formed a presidential exploratory committee on April 12, 2023.[5]

Scott highlighted the economy, schools, and public safety as central themes of his campaign. Scott said he would reduce taxes and the national debt, increase U.S. manufacturing, support charter schools, and support investment in the military, law enforcement, and security at the U.S.-Mexico border. He also spoke about his background growing up in a low-income household, saying, "I'm the candidate the far left fears the most. I disrupt their narrative. [...] I'm living proof that America is the land of opportunity and not a land of oppression."[6]

Before serving in the U.S. Senate, Scott represented South Carolina's 1st Congressional District in the U.S. House from 2011 to 2013. Click here to read more about Scott's biography.

Campaign themes

Website

Scott listed the following policy positions on his campaign website as of August 8, 2023.

“

BORDER SECURITY
“On my first day as Commander-in-Chief, the strongest nation on Earth will stop retreating from our own southern border. If you don’t control your back door, it’s not your house. And if our southern border is unsafe and insecure, it’s not our country.”

Border security is national security. If we want to prevent deadly drugs like fentanyl from infiltrating our communities, we need to stop the illegal immigrants who bring them across our borders. The cartels won’t stop pumping drugs and violence into American communities until we stop them, either with a strong border wall or by military force. Biden’s failure to address the crisis at our southern border has turned every county in America into a border county.

  • Expel illegal immigrants trying to enter the country by reinstating Title 42 to combat the fentanyl crisis.
  • Fully fund the construction of the wall at the southern border, while strengthening law enforcement’s capabilities to detect drug smugglers and human traffickers before they enter our country.
  • End Biden’s “Catch and release” policies which weaken our nation’s security, and undermine our nation’s sovereignty.
  • Recognize drug cartels as terrorists and let the world’s greatest military power defend our borders and our lives.

EDUCATION, NOT INDOCTRINATION
“I have lived the truth that education is the closest thing to magic in America. But today, the far left has us retreating away from excellence in our schools. Extreme liberals are letting Big Labor bosses trap millions of kids in failing systems. They’re replacing education with indoctrination.”

America’s children should be learning ABCs, not CRT. The radical Left wants to indoctrinate our children, not educate them. We will fight to ensure that America’s kids are learning how to read and write, not about gender transition and sexual identity. We must demand excellence in our schools, which means giving every family a choice, every parent a voice, and every child a chance.

  • Defend parental rights by giving every family the power and resources they need to decide their child’s education and future.
  • Demand transparency in the classroom so parents are informed as to what their children learn in school.
  • Expand opportunities for all children by embracing education freedom and empowering parents, which will allow millions of children to unlock their God-given potential.

CONSERVATIVE VALUES AND GOD-GIVEN RIGHTS
“Under Joe Biden, we have become a nation in retreat. Retreating from religious liberty and the worship of God himself. I will preserve one nation, Under God, indivisible — where we honor our Creator and respect every innocent life.”

Conservatism is the home of common sense. The radical Left has tried its best to remove faith, patriotism, and religious liberty from our society, but we won’t back down. It’s time for new conservative leadership to bring Americans together with faith: Faith in God, faith in each other, and faith in America.

  • Life has intrinsic value because it comes from God. With a 100% pro-life voting record, we must stand up against the radical left pushing taxpayer-funded abortion up until the moment of birth. This starts by fostering a culture of life, and winning the hearts and minds of Americans.
  • Celebrate our Founding Fathers, not cancel them. Americans have won the lottery of citizenship. Each generation must pass on the appreciation for the magnificence of our U.S. Constitution and the God-given rights it protects while cherishing the power of American exceptionalism.
  • Individual Responsibility is an American value. If you are able-bodied, you work. You don’t spend what you don’t have. If you take out a loan, you pay it back. If you commit a violent crime, you go to jail. It’s common sense.

NATIONAL SECURITY
“Security starts on our borders, but it doesn’t end there. The Chinese Communist Party’s goal is not just to surpass us. It is to beat us. As President, I will rebuild a military so lethal and powerful that our adversaries will fear us and our allies will respect us.”

Joe Biden and the radical Left have shown weakness on a global stage, and have made our adversaries bolder. Defeating China starts with reducing our soaring national debt and removing the Chinese Communist Party from our universities, our farmland, our personal data, and our skies.

  • Peace through strength can only be achieved if we have the most capable fighting force on the planet. My father and my brothers have 85 years of combined military service between them. When I am President, our service members will have every tool they need, and our veterans will have every resource they deserve. We must steadfastly support those who risk their lives to protect our freedom and ensure they have the modern capabilities they need to address the threats of tomorrow.
  • Economic prosperity promotes stability and security — here at home and around the world. As Biden sends us deeper and deeper in debt to the Chinese Communist Party, he only further fuels China’s rise. And we will win the next century by the strength of our economy. China started this new economic Cold War, but America will finish it.
  • Our military is not a social experiment, and we must show the world we are prepared and serious about winning the next century.

LAW AND ORDER
“In Biden’s America, crime is on the rise and law enforcement is in retreat. The far left is ending cash bail. They’re demonizing, demoralizing, and de-funding the police. I grew up in neighborhoods alongside people who ended up incarcerated or in a cemetery. We needed more public safety, not less!”

Joe Biden and the radical Left’s agenda isn’t about protecting communities, they seek to promote chaos and fear under the guise of “fairness.” We must break the concept in this nation that you have to be for law enforcement or for communities of color. That is a false binary choice. We must re-fund our police and support public safety, because we cannot have innocent people at risk, police officers getting attacked and ambushed, and seniors locked in their homes in fear from sundown until sunup.

  • Supporting law enforcement: One out of every four law enforcement officer positions remains vacant. They can’t get people to do the job. President Biden has blamed the police, allowed for the Democrats to defund the police, and they’ve demonized the actual law enforcement profession.
  • End sanctuary cities to stop illegal immigration, allowing local law enforcement to work with federal immigration authorities.
  • Increase the penalties for criminals who intentionally target law enforcement officers.

CREATE OPPORTUNITIES AND GROW WAGES
“I am living proof that America is the land of opportunity, not a land of oppression. The circumstances may be different, the details may change, but every one of us is here because of an American journey where there were obstacles that became opportunities.”

Biden and the left have taxed, borrowed, and spent trillions of dollars trying to replace a hand up with handouts. All they bought us was crushing inflation that has devastated families like yours and mine. We must rebuild and restore every rung of the ladder that helped me climb. Because I want my American story to pale in comparison to you.

  • Made in America agenda that ramps up research and development, reclaims supply chains, and re-energizes our manufacturing base with Opportunity Zones 2.0.
  • Unleash American energy and innovation by removing burdensome red tape, cutting taxes, and expanding an all-of-the-above energy approach.
  • Live within our means, by reining in the left’s out-of-control spending, ending earmarks and political favors, and making tax cuts permanent.[21][2]

I will shut off the funding that Joe Biden restarted to the UN’s irredeemably flawed Palestinian aid programs — because the best investment we can make in peace and stability is backing Israel 100 percent. I will rebuild and reinvest in American military dominance, so the arsenal of freedom is fully stocked for ourselves and our allies. And I will put terrorists across the world on notice with one simple policy: If you take an American life, it is guaranteed to cost you yours."[42]

America’s weakness is blood in the water for bad actors, but this is worse than that. We didn’t just invite this aggression, we paid for it. Iran is the biggest funder of Hamas.
