EXCLUSIVE: A super PAC supporting Sen. Tim Scott’s recently launched presidential campaign is spotlighting what the South Carolina Republican calls his optimist and positive conservative message on the campaign trail as the group launches a major ad blitz.
“I am living proof that American dreams do come true,” Scott says at the top of the ad from TIM PAC that was shared first with Fox News on Thursday.
The spot uses clips of the senator on the campaign trail highlighting his family history — his grandfather grew up in the segregated South and picked cotton for a living. And Scott has also highlighted how he was raised in poverty by a single mother.
“We live in the land of opportunity, not the land of oppression. And that’s why I say from cotton to Congress in one lifetime. Only in America,” Scott says in one of the clips in the commercial.
Officials with the super PAC tell Fox News that they’re putting $7.25 million behind their initial ad buy, which will start Friday and runs through Labor Day. That includes $6 million to run spots on broadcast TV in Iowa and New Hampshire, and on national cable television, plus a $1.25 million digital component.

TIM PAC is the acronym for Trust in the Mission PAC, which is the new name for the former Opportunity Matters Fund super PAC, which was aligned with Scott before he launched his presidential campaign last month.
“Tim truly believes in all the good America has to offer and his life story is a shining example,” TIM PAC co-chair Rob Collins told Fox News. “The more voters hear about Tim’s vision for the country and how it was shaped by his own experiences, the more they see he’s the best person to lead the Republican Party as its presidential nominee in 2024
