Did he have GOOD excuses when he missed all those votes in the Senate?
How about all the votes Cruz missed in the Senate?
For all of 2015 and 2016 to date, Rubio missed 38.7% of all Senate votes (140 of 362), and Cruz missed 27.9% (101 of 362).
In 2014, their missed vote numbers were 28 (Cruz), and 30 (Rubio).
In 2013, their missed vote numbers were 16 (Cruz), and 9 (Rubio).
Yes, overall Rubio is worse, but neither has a record to be proud of.
Their pay should be docked for every missed vote without a valid excuse (campaigning isn’t valid).
