Following the leadership elections, U.S. Senator Tim Scott addressed the media regarding Senate Republicans' intentions to implement President-elect Trump's agenda.

"Without any question, President Trump set out to make sure that Americans felt like this country and the American Dream was alive and well and there for them," said Senator Scott. "From the border to fixing the economy, to solving the issue of crime and restoring confidence on the global stage, President Trump has been very clear on his agenda."

Senator Scott emphasized their goal with leader John Thune is to ensure these objectives are met.
