U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) released the following statement on the third stop on his nationwide Virtual Opportunity Zones Tour featuring the SoLa Impact Beehive in South Los Angeles, California. The Virtual Opportunity Zones Tour is highlighting the good news seen in cities and towns across America as their citizens work together to create new jobs and breathe new life into their communities.

"SoLa Impact is a great example of Americans harnessing the spirit of Opportunity Zones," said Senator Tim Scott. "Their work to create high-quality, affordable housing while bringing jobs to often overlooked communities will make a lasting impact on the landscape and lives of the people in South Los Angeles. This plan has the power to reinvigorate the heart of this neighborhood by attracting local, minority- and women-owned businesses to invest in their own community. I hope to visit in person soon to see firsthand the growth this project brings."
