@marcorubio US Senate candidate, FL We should not have a Senate GOP leadership vote until we have a clear explanation for why our 2022 campaign efforts failed AND until we have a clear understanding of the political & policy direction for the GOP Senate moving forward

Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio added himself to the growing list of GOP senators suggesting that the party must reevaluate its leadership in the upper chamber following Republicans’ disappointing performance in the 2022 midterms. In a tweet posted Friday morning, Rubio called for the Senate GOP to postpone its currently scheduled leadership vote next week, saying that Republican members of the upper chamber must ensure party leadership is comprised of individuals willing to advance the will of GOP voters. “First we need to make sure that those who want to lead us are genuinely committed to fighting for the priorities...

Rubio criticized his Democrat opponent for supporting the killing of unborn babies in abortions “at any point” in pregnancy. Fox News reports Rubio, a Florida Republican with a strong pro-life record, said the abortion issue is a difficult one for many Americans, but he believes in “the right of an unborn, innocent human being to...

On Tuesday night, Rep. Val Demings (D-FL) debated Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), as she seeks to stop the incumbent senator from winning a third term. During her performance, she showed off her true colors as a radical and desperate candidate running in a state that's been turning increasingly red. Rubio showed off his debate skills, especially early on, when the moderator referenced the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and the resulting record-high inflation, which is particularly bad in Florida. The candidates were specifically asked what can be done to help Florida families. "I think the first thing we've got to...

Rep. Val Demings (D-FL) said Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) is living in a “fantasy land” after the senator alleged during Tuesday night’s debate that five million illegal immigrants have crossed the border since President Biden took office. “Congresswoman Demings says that what’s happening at the border is nothing unusual,” Rubio said. “We have 5,000 people a day crossing the border. You know how many people have entered our country illegally since Joe Biden took over as president? Five million,” Rubio said, noting that two million have come into the country in the last 12 months, 80 of whom are on...

What Florida Needs to Recover From Hurricane IanReal Clear FloridaMarco Rubio10/13/22A few years ago, while visiting the National Hurricane Center, I asked the staff to describe a worst-case weather scenario for Florida. They described a high-category hurricane stalling off the coast and pummeling the western side of the state with storm surge. In other words, they described Hurricane Ian.Over the course of that storm, Florida suffered as much as $50 billion in property damage. Whole communities were destroyed. Islands were cut off. And the death toll, now exceeding 100, continues to rise. It’s the worst natural disaster to hit Florida...

Republican lawmakers filed a bill Wednesday that would require expecting fathers to pay child support beginning at conception. The "Unborn Child Support Act" would "establish and enforce child support obligations of the biological father of an unborn child." With the mother's consent, once paternity is proven, fathers would be responsible for the payment amount determined by a court. The bill would amend the Social Security Act which outlines the existing state-enforced requirements for biological fathers to make child support payments to the mother of their child. Not only would the legislation expand the requirements and ensure state enforcement of mothers'...

Jane's Revenge, a terrorist group responsible for firebombing dozens of pro-life pregnancy centers, announced "the expiration of our 30 days of mercy toward these enemies of women's rights to terminate their unwanted offspring. We gave you a respite from attack so you could shutdown your false efforts to persuade women that you offer a humane alternative to abortion. That's a lie. Abortion is the only humane alternative. Bringing more children into the world only exposes them to pain. The crushing burden of unneeded lives endangers the survival of the planet. We promise to take increasingly drastic measures against the oppressive...
