Watch live: Tim Scott launches presidential campaign

Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) on Monday morning is slated to formally launch his campaign for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.

He filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on Friday, making him the latest Republican to enter a growing field that has so far been dominated by former President Trump.

Scott, who won reelection in November, is vying for the Republican presidential nomination against Trump, former U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, with others, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), expected to jump into the race soon.

The event is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. ET.
