Washington
–
U.S.
Senator
Tim
Scott
(R-SC)
issued
the
statement
below
following
the
Senate’s
confirmation
of
Mike
Pompeo
as
Secretary
of
State.
“We
need
a
Secretary
of
State
with
a
strong,
clear
vision
of
the
United
States
and
our
role
in
the
world.
During
his
time
in
Congress
and
as
CIA
Director,
Mike
Pompeo
has
shown
he
is
the
man
for
this
job.
With
several
critical
diplomatic
issues
currently
moving
forward,
from
Iran
to
North
Korea,
I
am
confident
that
Mike
will
provide
the
best
possible
counsel
and
direction
for
the
President.”
