Text of speech by Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., the Republican response to President Joe Biden s address to Congress, as provided by the office of the Senate minority leader:
Good evening. I’m Senator Tim Scott from the great state of South Carolina.
We just heard President Biden’s first address to Congress. Our President seems like a good man. His speech was full of good words. But President Biden promised you a specific kind of leadership. He promised to unite a nation. To lower the temperature. To govern for all Americans, no matter how we voted. That was the pitch. You just heard it again.
