“It’s great to be here in the red county of Miami-Dade!” Marco Rubio announced.

“I am more energized and excited about working in the Senate than I’ve been at any other time because I believe we on the cusp of a new generation of leadership in this Republican Party that will restore common sense, that will put hardworking Americans first, and that will leave for our children what they deserve to inherit: the greatest country in the history of the world,” Rubio concluded.
