Senator Tim Scott launched a presidential exploratory committee on Wednesday, taking a key step toward running for president in 2024 and challenging former President Donald Trump for the party's nomination. Scott, 57, on Wednesday will visit Iowa, the lead-off state in the Republican presidential nominating process, before heading to New Hampshire on Thursday and his home state of South Carolina on Friday. Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley and activist investor Vivek Ramaswamy have formally launched campaigns seeking the Republican 2024 nomination. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former Vice President Mike Pence are also expected to run, though neither have announced their candidacy.

Senator Tim Scott plans to launch a presidential exploratory committee on Wednesday, two sources with knowledge of the matter said, a key step toward running for president in 2024. On Wednesday, Scott will be in Iowa, the lead-off state in the Republican presidential nominating process. Scott often called out Trump during his presidency over racially charged comments and blocked several of his judicial nominees for such reasons. Scott garners no more than 2% support in almost all polls, though supporters argue that will change as he becomes a better-known national figure.
