Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) will launch a second run for GOP leader in the fall, according to a letter sent to his colleagues on Wednesday.

He joins two other Republicans, Senate Minority Whip John Thune (R-SD) and Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), in the race to succeed Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY).

“I have decided to run for Senate Republican leader because I believe now is a moment we need dramatic change,” Scott said in the letter, obtained by the Washington Examiner. “I believe that our voters want us to use this leadership election to make a choice to upend the status quo in Washington.”

“If you also believe this to be true and want a leader dedicated to that principle, I would be honored
to have the opportunity to earn your support,” he added.
