The event was organized by Indivisible Miami, who say they invited Rubio. However, Rubio’s office said they were unaware of any invitation.
Rubio’s office told 7News, “We have been fully accessible and responsive to constituents, and our staff has already met with hundreds of these liberal activists at our offices across Florida. As their manual reveals, their goal is to stage a hostile atmosphere, record themselves booing no matter what is said, and refuse to give up the microphone.”

Rubio’s staff made an EXCELLENT response to this, calling out the Indivisible activists by exposing their tactics. They don’t want to meet privately with legislators, they want press coverage, so their meltdowns can be televised nationally.
I emailed Senator Rubio to thank him for the way this was handled, even though I am from Pennsylvania. We need to support all our legislators as they continue to take a beating from the left.
Other legislators can take a lesson from how this was handled. I also think all townhalls should require ID to get in, to make sure they are constituents.
