Senator Tim Scott, a Republican from South Carolina, has achieved a historic milestone by becoming the longest-serving African American in the 235-year history of the United States Senate. This achievement marks a significant moment as Scott surpasses the record previously held by Edward Brooke, who served for 12 years starting in 1967. Scott was first appointed to the Senate in 2012 and has been recognized for his dedication to service and leadership. His tenure in the Senate coincides with the start of the 119th Congress, where he is poised to serve as the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee and the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
