Let's make this birthday one to remember.

59 years old (Born on September 19, 1965)

Happy Birthday, Senator Tim Scott! Politics can be tricky business—but you've proven time and again that humor, persistence, and a good pair of comfy shoes are key. From your memorable speeches on Capitol Hill to championing policies supporting economic growth, education reform, and opportunity initiatives—you've managed the near-impossible: making fiscal policy debates incredibly watchable!

Here's hoping today brings as much joy as your historic political wins—especially when you became South Carolina's senator in 2013 after serving two notable years in the House. May laughter follow you through every filibuster—and may cake calories never count while celebrating another great year ahead!
