Sen. Tim Scott said he has felt racially discriminated against in the halls of Congress even though he is an elected official.

“So while I thank God I have not endured bodily harm, I have, however, felt the pressure applied by the scales of justice when they are slanted. I have felt the anger, the frustration, the sadness and humiliation that comes with feeling like you’re being targeted for nothing more than being yourself,” the South Carolina Republican, one of two African-American senators in office, said on the Senate floor Wednesday.
