Thank you, Cincinnati!

You know, it should not take a natural disaster, a terrorist attack, an epidemic or a global pandemic to bring us together as a nation. It doesn’t matter whether one of the victims of such disasters is a Democrat or a Republican, because we’re all Americans. Yet there is a toxic lack of bipartisanship in Congress. Both Democrats and Republicans put their party first, their political agenda second and our country last instead and are fighting each other in Washington instead of coming together to face the concerns of the American people who are worried about their jobs, about their homes, their businesses, their health insurance and the threats from our enemies abroad.

That’s why I made it absolutely clear throughout my career, whether it is as U.S. Senator or as Governor, that my political fight would always be about West Virginia and time and again I stood by that promise. That’s why I fought to protect West Virginians’ pre-existing conditions, to protect their Second Amendment rights as I vetoed restrictions on automatic weapon sales and voted against banning high-capacity magazines of over 10 bullets. That’s why I opposed the cap-and-trade bill and supported the promotion of the development of clean coal technologies that allowed America’s prosperity and are getting America to energy independence. That’s why I worked to cross the aisle for the people of West Virginia by introducing the Miners Protection Act that established pension and health care benefits to coal mine workers. That’s why I supported Brett Kavanaugh’s SCOTUS nomination for the sake of the protection of America’s constitutional rights. That’s why as Governor of West Virginia, I cut taxes to make this state a place open for business and I advocated the elimination of the Death Tax. That’s why I co-sponsored the Paycheck Fairness Act to enforce against wage discrimination based on gender. That’s why I supported the abolition of Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran - that handed billions of dollars to a country that was the world’s largest sponsor of global terrorism – and supported President Trump on his successful efforts to denuclearize Iran and North Korea. That’s why I worked with my Democratic and Republican colleagues in the Senate to fight the Opioid Crisis and co-introduced the Providing Veterans Access to In-State Tuition Act that enabled student veterans eligibility to receive in-state tuition rates from public schools in the event they decide to use their Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits.

I always put America’s interests first and I always will. That’s how we make our democracy and our country better. What I did for West Virginia, Marco Rubio will do for America and that’s why I’m here to announce that I endorse him for the presidency of the United States of America because my country matters more than party.

[Crowd cheers and applauds]

It has always been the purpose of Marco Rubio to put the concerns, interests and needs of America first before partisanship because to him nothing is near as important as being an American. No wonder that he passed those tough sanctions on Hezbollah and brought Democrats and Republicans together to pass his sponsored VA reform law that empowered the VA secretary to hold managers accountable for incompetence, negligence and corruption and to care more about veterans than bureaucrats. Along with Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, he co-sponsored the Let Freedom Reign Act of 2019 that provided military training and material support to the Venezuelan insurgency during the Venezuelan Civil War and helped them defeating tyranny and restoring democracy, freedom, justice, stability and integrity in Venezuela. While my Democratic colleagues suggested stricter gun control laws that would have been ineffective, Marco Rubio co-sponsored, after the 2016 shooting at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, he introduced and passed the Terror Intelligence Improvement Act that allowed the U.S. attorney general to delay a firearms' purchase for up to three days and filed an emergency court petition if someone previously investigated for terrorism tried to buy a gun. Omar Mateen has been able to buy a gun because he was no longer under active investigation and so that bill ensured that if any gun purchaser has been suspected for terror in the last decade, the FBI would be notifying that he or she has gone in to buy a gun and would have the chance to stop that sale and to investigate what you’re up to. As Senator, he worked hard convincing Senator Jim Inhofe, former Environment and Public Works Committee Chairman, to commit to authorizing the Central Everglades Planning Project in the water resources bill for the sake of the restoration of the Everglades. That's why in May 2016, he was one of the 22 Senate Republicans who broke with their party majority in their support to the approval of a $2 billion emergency funding to combat the Zika virus at a time when his home state of Florida accounted for roughly 20% of the recorded cases of Zika in the U.S. In order to make the Trump tax cuts even broader and make them permanent and make them work for all Americans, he led the effort to double the Child Tax Credit, which benefited to all Americans, including the middle-class, and got this economy growing. And when Coronavirus was soaring around the world in 2020 and was threatening to shatter the world economy, Marco Rubio – who was Chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship at the time – along with ranking member Ben Cardin worked with states to approve the Economic Injury Disaster Loans for businesses affected by COVID-19, which helped those businesses to remain competitive and to earn the necessary tools to pursue their economic activities, thus helping to avoid an economic slowdown and to allow America to pursue the economic growth of the last 8 years. He knows that the best way to avoid a recession is to make America the best place in the world to do business because 7 out 10 jobs are created by small businesses.

So unlike what my Democratic friends in the Senate want you to believe as they are trying to paint the Vice-President as just another go-along partisan politician, Marco Rubio has always put our country first. No wonder that the Lugar Center ranked him as the 10th most bi-partisan U.S. Senator on a total of 100. That is exactly the kind of leadership we need in our next President and that’s why Marco Rubio is the best choice to bring our country together and lead America forward.

[Crowd cheers and applauds]

Meanwhile, his opponent Tammy Duckworth is ranked as the 84th most bi-partisan Senator by the Lugar Center. During her seven-and-a-half years in the Senate, she has not reached across party lines to get accomplish anything significant, nor has she been willing to take on powerful interest groups in the Democratic Party to get something done. No wonder that she voted 80 % of the time with Chuck Schumer and Sherrod Brown as well as with Nancy Pelosi and Andre Carson for higher taxes, strict regulations on energy production, stricter gun control and cuts in funding for our military. That is a big contrast with the record of one of the last Democratic presidents, Bill Clinton, who stood up to some of those same Democratic interest groups, worked with Republicans, and got some important things done, like welfare reform, middle-class tax cuts, free trade agreements, and a balanced budget.

Marco Rubio has the courage to put partisanship aside in order to get things done because he knows that is the way to make things better in America. That’s why, in order to ensure the continuation of America’s progress, he will bring both parties together to reduce middle-class taxes to 15 % and to index capital gains for inflation and create a tax-preferred savings vehicle so our economy can keep growing and make small businesses even more competitive. He will work with both parties to get this country to energy independence and he’ll do it by taking advantage of all of America’s sources of energy (including oil, coal, gas, wind, solar, hydroelectric, geothermal, etc.), by investing a part of the revenues from oil drilling into the development of renewable energies instead of doing it through higher taxes and regulations on energy and by making us number one in nuclear energy production and export through the building of 40 new nuclear power plants in the U.S. by 2050 and through tax credits for advanced nuclear projects and subsidies for building new nuclear power plants. As President, Marco Rubio will get us to soaring development of our country’s infrastructures by lowering the federal gasoline tax rate by 80 %; vetoing any gas-tax increase; giving back the control of the highways to the states; preventing Washington special interests from building “Bridges to Nowhere” and engaging in other wasteful spending; freeing states from the strings that come attached to federal funding; removing barriers to public-private partnerships; abolishing the Davis-Bacon Act that inflates government costs by billions annually and is a giveaway of taxpayer dollars to labor unions and phasing out the Mass Transit Account, which loots the Highway Trust Fund. On foreign policy, he will bring both parties together to normalize our relations with Sergei Polonsky’s Russia so we can ensure long-term global peace and work together for the maintenance and expansion of peace, freedom, human rights, stability and territorial integrity in the world, including in Europe and in Middle East where Operation Ceasefire is about to defeat tyranny and oppression in Erdogan’s Turkey thanks to Russia turning against Ankara. As President and Commander-in-Chief, Marco Rubio will bring both parties and our allies to accomplish our path to a nuclear free world by ratifying the Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty to prohibit the use of fissile material from being used for the construction of nuclear weapons or WMDs, thus ensuring peace through strength.

[Crowd cheers and applauds]

And you know, our first President George Washington has warned America that the spirit of party could be the worst enemy of our democracy and enfeeble our government's ability to do its job. That is exactly the kind of nightmare we are living today in Washington and we need to overcome that nightmare. So my fellow Americans, Republicans, Democrats, independents, Reagan Democrats or Clinton Democrats, we need you to come together and vote for the person you believe is the best to unify this country and keep it moving forward. And Marco Rubio is that kind of leader and as Chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, as a member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and as Vice-President he has the best experience to get our economy growing and keep America safe, he knows how to get things done and he always put America first. So, my fellow Americans, Democrats, Republicans and independents let’s come together to elect Marco Rubio as President and to move our country forward.

Thank you. God bless you and God bless the United States of America.

Marco Rubio's TV Ad

In an effort to dispel the Duckworth campaign's claims that Marco Rubio is running for Trump's third term and to describe the Vice-President as the real agent of change and with the right solutions for Americans looking for change, the Rubio campaign broadcasts an ad narrating the aspects of Rubio's agenda different to Trump's, especially on trade, energy, middle-class tax cuts and foreign policy.

Title : Real Change

Airing : Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia and Wisconsin

Real Change ad narration :

Own creation
Narrator : In their obsession to undo the progress of the last 8 years, including the strongest economy in 50 years thanks to tax cuts and free enterprise and an America much safer than ever before thanks to a strong military, the Democrats want you to believe that this election is about change vs more of the same.

But that is a false choice. The choice of this election is between good change and bad change. Because change is not a destination just like hope is not a strategy.

Source : https://www.rubio.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/miami-office-opening
Marco Rubio will bring the change that will create jobs and prosperity.

Source(s) : Own creation; Own creation
As President, he will cut middle-class taxes from 22 % to 15 % in addition of indexing capital gains for inflation and creating a tax-preferred savings vehicle, which will give the middle-class as well as all Americans a fair chance to prosper, to appreciate the American Dream and to succeed so our economy can grow and so our country preserves and reinforces its status as the best business-friendly environment in the world.

He’ll expand free trade with our allies around the world so we can make America the most competitive nation in the world economy, counter-balance China's trade power, allow American businesses to make direct investments into foreign economies to produce goods at a lower cost in these environments and make America number one in auto production again.

He will finally lead our country to energy independence so we can become free from foreign oil and he will do so by taking advantage of all of America’s sources of energy, encouraging oil drilling and production, invest a part of the revenues from oil drilling into the development of renewable energies so we can produce more solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric energies which will also be done through tax credits. His energy plan will make us number one in nuclear energy production and export by building 40 new nuclear power plants by 2050.

Marco Rubio will bring the change that will increasingly require less ground troops to combat terrorism. To face the threat represented by Boko Haram, he will provide military training and material support to our allies in Western Africa so they will have the necessary tools to defeat terrorism and under his leadership our country will lead drone airstrikes against Boko Haram key targets, including their controlled oil refineries in order to deprive them of any means to boost their war effort and their plans for terrorist attacks. As a result, it will reduce the need for additional ground troops there and it will cost our country less as drones are significantly cheaper to purchase, fuel, and maintain than regular airplanes.

Source(s) : Own creation; Own creation
And he will bring the change that will give us long term global peace by normalizing our relations with Sergei Polonsky's Russia so we can finally restore stability, peace and territorial integrity in Eastern Europe and the Middle East and eliminate any risk of nuclear war and ensure the expansion of human rights, freedom and peace in the globe. And he will ratify the Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty to prohibit the use of fissile material for the building of nuclear weapons or WMDs and accomplish our path to a nuclear free world and ensure long-term global peace.

That is the kind of change that will provide growth, jobs, prosperity as well as long-term global peace and security instead of higher taxes, bigger size of government, deeper dependence towards foreign energy, sending jobs overseas, higher tariffs and retreat from our duty to keep America safe.

So if you're looking for a candidate offering real change for America and the right solutions for America's future, the choice is clear : Marco Rubio.

Marco Rubio : I’m Marco Rubio and I approve this message.

Thank you, Wisconsin!

This campaign is about how to keep this economy growing and how to pursue the economic progress of the last few years and give a chance for all Americans to prosper and enjoy the American Dream. And Wisconsin is a leader in the contribution to the strength of America’s agriculture industry. This state produces about a quarter of America's cheese, leading the nation in cheese production, is second in milk production, after California, and third in per-capita milk production, behind California and Vermont. The Badger State is the second largest producer of butter, producing about one-quarter of the nation’s butter. The state ranks first nationally in the production of corn for silage, cranberries, ginseng and snap beans for processing. It grows more than half the national crop of cranberries, and 97% of the nation's ginseng. Wisconsin is also a leading producer of oats, potatoes, carrots, tart cherries, maple syrup, and sweer corn for processing. Many agricultural companies, especially dairy companies, in New England like in the Midwest are benefiting from free trade partly because American milk is approximately twice less expensive than the Canadian milk, which encourages American and Canadian consumers to buy more American milk than Canadian milk to keep their purchasing power strong. And thanks to the successful renegotiation of NAFTA and the ratification of the USMCA, we strengthened labor laws and kept tariffs at zero while further opening up the Canadian market to US dairy, poultry and eggs and allowing more Canadian dairy, peanuts and peanut products to cross the border, thus drastically increasing our agriculture industry’s competitiveness. So if we expand free trade with our allies in Europe, Latin America and East Asia, we’re going to make this industry even more competitive and increase international consumers’ access to U.S. agriculture products, thus ensuring job creation in America and ensuring the maintenance of our manufacturing jobs here in this country thanks to a reduction of U.S. businesses’ fiscal burden. And that’s what I’m going to do as President of the United States to keep our agricultural industry strong and to make our country the best place for U.S. farmers to work and do business for the sake of our nation’s competitiveness in the world economy and create the favorable conditions for job creation in America and ensure long-term economic prosperity for all Americans.

Thank you. God bless you and God bless America.

Own creation
Two months ago, during a primary debate, Senator Duckworth has claimed that this Administration was, quote, « seriously lacking a steady hand with regards to the diplomatic situation in Turkey in the context of Operation Ceasefire ». Well, the recent progress that our allies are now making in Operation Ceasefire are proving her wrong like she has been on Iran (which we got denuclearizing and restoring freedom with the election of a pro-American President – Arsham Parsi – there, years after Obama’s nuclear deal with the old Iranian regime, a deal which Duckworth wholeheartedly supported, delivered billions of dollars to a country that was the world’s largest sponsor of global terrorism through the abolition of sanctions on Tehran) and on our successful military efforts and airstrikes that helped to defeat ISIS in the Middle East (as she opposed those airstrikes even before Operation Inhert Resolve has been launched at a time ISIS was controlling over 70 % of Iraq's territory). Thanks to our strong foreign policy, and to our strong diplomacy that promoted strong American leadership, we got Sergei Polonsky, a Russian President friendly to the United States, to withdraw Russian troops out of Turkey, which deprived Erdogan of a major partner in terms of military support and military arsenal provision. As a result, our allies among Coalition forces have started new advances, overpowering the Turkish troops and making strong progress at the point of coming within 2 days march of Ankara. Thanks to such progress as well as to the provision of military arsenal and training to the Kurds and our sanctions on any foreign arms supplies to Turkey, victory is near in Turkey and we are about to restore freedom, integrity, justice and stability in the Middle East and we’re going to get Turkish leaders to the negotiating table and ensure the recognition of Kurdistan’s independence, freedom and sovereignty. That is the kind of leadership that we need in order to ensure steady global peace and defend freedom. This kind of leadership is peace through strength, which is exactly what we are doing.

In the next few years, the next President is going to have to deal with Turkey’s leadership on that issue and look them in the eye and not blink, just like he or she is going to have to deal with Sergei Polonsky to effectively normalize our relations and ensure arms limitations for the sake of global peace and just like he or she is going to have to stand up to Boko Haram and keep this country safe against terrorism. The fact of the matter is we are in a time in history in which we can’t afford uncertainty. This is no time to train somebody about how to deal with America’s national security threats and geopolitical foes. This is a time for strength and experience. The next President needs to be ready to be Commander-in-Chief on Day One. If you’re looking for someone with those qualities and ready to make tough decisions, then I am your candidate, because I am a proven leader.

That’s why, in the U.S. Senate I passed tough sanctions on Hezbollah; successfully introduced the Girls Count Act to fight human trafficking; co-sponsored the U.S.-Jordan Defense Cooperation Act to provide assistance to our Jordanian allies in the battle against ISIS and in dealing with the Syrian refugee crisis; and co-sponsored the Let Freedom Reign Act that provided military training and arms sales for the Venezuelan insurgency during the Venezuelan Civil War and helped the people of Venezuela to transfer towards democracy, liberty and integrity. As Vice-President of the United States, I helped President Trump to defeat ISIS and to get the world to the denuclearization of North Korea and Iran. I was the first Vice-President in office to visit Iran since the Iranian Revolution and Arsham Parsi and I discussed issues in which we managed to reach agreements thanks to Parsi’s friendliness to our country. It was in the aftermath of that visit, a few weeks later, that Parsi announced, during a Joint Session of Congress that I presided along with the Speaker of the House, that Iran was going to proceed towards their denuclearization, to stop sponsoring global terrorism and that our relations with Tehran were going to be normalized. And that’s exactly what happened, getting us to stronger nuclear security, stronger stability in the Middle East and to stronger global peace. So I know how to deal with our allies and how to handle America’s national security threats. As a member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and as Vice-President of the United States, I have the best leadership and experience to keep America safe and as President I will do so by keeping our military strong and modernize it, by standing with our allies and work to expand our alliances, by normalizing our relations with Polonsky’s Russia, by ratifying the Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty and by keeping American leadership strong. That way, we will defeat Boko Haram, get us to a nuclear free world, eliminate any risk of nuclear war, ensure long term global peace and guarantee that our children and grandchildren, including my 4 children, will grow up in a world in which they will know peace, security, stability, freedom and prosperity. That’s why I’m asking for your support and your vote in order to get us there.

Thank you! God bless you and God bless America!

The Vice-President campaigns for Dean Heller, praising his record of bi-partisanship and his accomplishments. Ahead of the senate vote on Brian Sandoval’s SCOTUS nomination, Rubio holds a rally in Reno, Nevada, where he praises Sandoval’s record as Attorney General and as Governor (in which he led the state's legal fight against the storage of nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain; developed Nevada's first Public Integrity Unit and sponsored legislation strengthening Nevada's laws against domestic violence, drug abuse and human trafficking; signed a package of bill to provide $1.3 billion in tax breaks and subsidies over 20 years for Tesla Motors in exchange for building the massive Gigafactory 1 battery factory in the state, near Reno, to revitalize the economy after the 2008 financial crisis; reformed the state's education system by increasing funding for public schools and grants, by creating incentives to recruit more teachers, by promoting professional training, by appropriating $10 million for preschool programs and by expanding full-day kindergarten across Nevada; and managed to diversify Nevada's economy by encouraging the production of solar and geothermal energies), describing him as one of the most qualified nominees for SCOTUS ever in the history of the United States and blasting Tammy Duckworth on her support to the filibuster to Sandoval’s nomination. The Rubio campaign hopes that Sandoval’s strong popularity in Nevada (where he had a 53 % approval rating towards his performance as Governor compared to only 22 % disapproval rating) and the Democrats’ filibuster will help Rubio to win Nevada in November.

Own creation

Marco Rubio : Thank you, Texas! This campaign is about how to get things done, about how to preserve our people’s freedom and how to keep this country moving forward. It requires, of course, strong turnout in the presidential election to bring me over the top but also keeping the Senate and the House of Representatives under Republican hands. That’s why I’m here to campaign for my friend Senator Ted Cruz.

Senator Cruz and I have something in common : we are both sons of Cuban immigrants who came to this country in quest of the American Dream. Mis padres emigró a Estados Unidos tres años anteriores el ascenso de Fidel Castro. Ellos no hablaba ni una palabra de inglés, y no tenían acceso a la educación y viven de cheque en cheque. Pero, gracias al empeño del un barman y una ama de llaves, ellos crear mejores vidas para sus hijos. Es una historia fabulosa del Sueño Americano que representa un ejemplo de nuestro deber para nuestro país : reforzar nuestra prosperidad económica y garantizar que nuestro niños dos estarán la más próspera generación de estadounidenses. Rafael Cruz, el padre del Senador Cruz, huyen de la opresión del Fulgencio Batista después de que fue encarcelado y torturado, casi muerto a golpes. Su hermana menor luchó contra el régimen de Castro en la contrarrevolución y, en consecuencia, fue torturada. Huyó a Texas en 1957, sin hablar inglés, con $ 100 cosidos en su ropa interior. Lavó los platos ganando 50 centavos por hora para pagar la Universidad de Texas y comenzar un pequeño negocio en la industria del petróleo y el gas. Como resultado, el Senador Cruz y yo entendemos lo que es perder el don de la libertad. Es por esa razón que necesitamos preservarlo.

That requires making America the best place in the world to do business which is what we are doing as we passed the largest tax cuts in our nation’s history, which helped create seven and a half million new jobs and brought the unemployment rate at its lowest rate in 55 years. That requires keeping our military strong and that’s how we made America much safer than ever before by defeating ISIS. And that requires protecting our Constitution as well as the freedoms that the Constitution offers to our people. And Senator Cruz fought hard throughout his political career to defend the Second Amendment as well as the right for unborn human beings to live. In the U.S. Senate, as he became chairman of the Commerce Committee’s Subcommittee on Space, Science, and Competitiveness, he co-authored the U.S. Commercial Space Launch Competitiveness Act that prevented the federal government from introducing further regulation on the commercial space industry for 7 ½ years, reauthorized use of the International Space Station through 2024 and encouraged the development of the commercial space sector. In the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey that hit Texas, caused serious damages and deprived people of their home, Senator Cruz and myself along with Senator Cornyn introduced the Emergency Tax Relief for the families of victims of Hurricane Harvey, a bill that gave $5 billion in emergency tax relief for families impacted by Hurricane Harvey to help them recover from that disaster and that this law passed both Houses of Congress. But most of the Democrats in Congress opposed that legislation. The fact is that we need leaders and legislators who put the needs of the people first ahead of partisanship. And in 2014, Ted successfully introduced the amendment allowing victims of the 2009 terrorist attack at Fort Hood to be eligible for Purple Hearts. In a year in which Texas may become competitive, we need all of you to mobilize on Election Day because if you stay home if we rest on our laurels, we could see Texas turn blue. And Senator Cruz and I kept our word to protect the interests of the American people by championing tax reform and free enterprise, defense the Constitution and a strong military, thus getting America to where we are today. And that’s why we need you to go to the polls and that way we will win this presidential race and not only keep our majorities in both houses of Congress but also expand them and that’s how we will keep moving this country forward and make sure that America’s greatness has no limits.

Ted Cruz : Thank you, Marco! Thank you, my fellow Texans, for welcoming the next President of the United States of America, Marco Rubio. I can tell you that there’s no better candidate than him to lead America. This is a man of proven leadership and achievement. And this election will determine the fate of our nation and is clearly the most important of our lifetime and we better get it right.

Seven years ago, as we inherited the slowest economic recovery in history caused by high taxes, big government and regulations and were risking a recession, President Trump put forward the largest tax reform legislation in the history of this nation : the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. And in order to make those tax cuts even broader and permanent, Marco put forward an amendment doubling the Child Tax Credit from $1000 to $2000 and thus we passed that legislation. As a result, the economy is booming with the lowest unemployment rate in modern history, the lowest Hispanic unemployment rate ever recorded, the lowest African-American unemployment rate ever recorded, higher wages and the creation of more than 7 million new jobs. Why? Because we made America the best place in the world to do business. And despite those great results, Marco’s opponent along with the majority of her colleagues voted against the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, wants to roll it back and raise your taxes. But on the other hand, our nominee, our next President Marco Rubio will do even more to keep this economy growing and he’ll do it by championing tax reform and even reduce the middle-class tax rate from 22 % to 15 % in addition of indexing capital gains for inflation and creating a tax-preferred savings vehicle, which will give the middle-class as well as all Americans a fair chance to prosper, to appreciate the American Dream and to succeed. As Chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, he has the right experience to protect the interests of taxpayers and hard-working families and preserve America’s status as the best business-friendly environment in the world.

Texas is a leader in energy production : Texas is number one in the nation in terms of production of crude oil and natural gas but also in the generation of renewable wind power as well as in net electricity generation. We’re number five when it comes to solar energy production. And thanks to the approval of the construction of Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, we made strong progress in our path towards energy independence. So we understand that America’s energy independence requires taking advantage of all of America’s sources of energy. But that is not Tammy Duckworth’s intention, and that’s why she supported, along with Nancy Pelosi, a $10 per barrel tax on oil and voted against fracking and natural gas exports, which could have put 137 000 jobs at risk and driven up gas prices by 25 cents per gallon. But Marco Rubio has the right plan to get us to energy independence, which will be done by encouraging oil drilling and approving the construction of pipelines to facilitate oil transportation. He will also use a part of the revenues from oil drilling into the development of renewable energies. He also has a plan to make America the world’s leader in terms of nuclear energy export and production by encouraging the building of 40 new nuclear power plants in the US by 2050 and that will be done by investing a part of the revenues from oil drilling in the development of renewable energies, including nuclear, and through tax credits for advanced nuclear projects and subsidies for the building of new nuclear power plants. That way, America will become energy independent, strengthen its status as the world’s largest energy producer and improve its ecological footprint.

We now have the most conservative SCOTUS in history, thus ensuring the protection of our constitutional rights. In this presidential race, there is only one candidate who defended the Second Amendment time and again and will continue to do so and this candidate is Marco Rubio. All of us have been horrified as we’ve seen these school shootings. Santa Fe High Schol is about half hour from my house. I was home that morning and I jumped in a truck and headed down there. I spent the entire time at Santa Fe High School that entire day with students, teachers, first responders and parents. Governor Abbott and I were in a hospital visiting a dozen of students who were shot. And we asked them what is the answer to this. We kept our mouth shut and listened. Every one of those students said almost word for word that gun control is not the answer, they said that taking away our guns will not make us safer and will just mean that the killers and murderers have guns. And we asked them what is the solution to such disasters and the number one answer I heard from students, teachers and families at Santa Fe is more armed police officers at schools to keep our kids and our schools safer. And in my very first year in the Senate, I led the way introducing the legislation that would provide $300 million in additional funding to put metal detectors. But unfortunately, the Democrats filibustered that legislation because their only focus was trying to undermine the Second Amendment like they are right now filibustering the SCOTUS nomination of one of the most qualified people ever for the Supreme Court, Brian Sandoval. He has absolutely no baggage and put the people of Nevada first before partisanship and yet Tammy Duckworth and the majority of her colleague are filibustering his SCOTUS nomination. No wonder that she wants to nominate liberal Supreme Court Justices who would deprive you of your the Second Amendment rights out of the Constitution, tolerate abortion and award Guantanamo terrorists with constitutional rights. Marco Rubio will nominate conservative judges who will protect your Second Amendment rights as well as the life of the unborn and state powers.

And it was in Garland, Texas, that ISIS started taking on America through their 2015 terrorist attack at Curtis Culwell Center where they injured 1 security officer. But thanks to the vigilance and courage of our police officers, we stopped this terrorist attack by killing the 2 perpetrators. Since then, we made strong progress against terror under President Trump and Vice-President Rubio by rebuilding our military and by being on offense against radical Islamic terrorism and that’s how we defeated ISIS in the Middle East and as President, Marco Rubio will keep our military strong and modernize it, provide our allies in military training and arsenal, expand our alliances and by promoting strong American leadership and he will defeat Boko Haram, normalize our relations with Polonsky’s Russia, accomplish our path to a nuclear free world through the ratification of the Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty and get us to long-term global peace and national security.

Texas is home to the Johnson Space Center that was formed in 1961 in the context of the Space Race between us and the Soviets, a contest which we won by sending men to the Moon, 55 years ago. Right now, America’s objective is to send a crewed mission to Mars by 2030 and that’s why, as President of the United States, Marco Rubio will make the establishment of a manned lunar base named Lunar Gateway on the Moon by 2028 his top priority in terms of space exploration to give us a springboard for crewed missions to the Moon and Mars, thus making our goal to get astronauts to Mars possible. And that will give Texas an opportunity to further strengthen its status as a leader in America’s space exploration program.

My fellow Texans, my fellow Americans, you can see that Marco Rubio is by far the most tested, prepared and experienced presidential candidate in this race. We can trust him to protect America’s freedom and values and get us to permanent and long-term economic prosperity through free enterprise and long-term peace through strength. So thanks to strong turnout from you, we’re going to keep Texas red and elect Marco Rubio as our next President and we’ll move this country forward.

Thank you! God bless Texas and God bless America!

-Economic policy speech in Tampa, FL where Rubio reminds voters that agriculture is the state’s second largest industry and that after Hurricane Irma hit Florida he worked with his colleagues in Congress to secure the creation of a $343 million block grant for Florida citrus as part of the 2017 hurricane disaster supplemental package. He also underlined that in 2014, when South Korea had levied a 54 % tariff on orange products, which was harming Florida orange juice producers, he visited South Korea where he pressed officials there on this harmful tariff and helped fast-track a solution by urging South Korean Ambassador Ahn Ho-young and his colleagues to tour Florida facilities and resolve their concerns, which they did a month later, thus settling the dispute between the U.S. and South Korea over frozen orange juice concentrate and bringing Florida natural juice sales from $4 million to $40 million in 3 years and the sale of fresh grapefruit from $1 million to nearly $5 million in the same period. Noting that Florida’s $1 billion annual exports to India represent a reason why trade ties with India’s large and growing market matter to Americans, Marco Rubio takes on the occasion to reiterate how much it is important for America to expand free trade agreements with its allies, which he will do as President while reducing the corporate tax rate to 15 % and lowering manufacturing businesses’ fiscal burden to keep manufacturing jobs in America, so we can encourage job creation in America by making the U.S. the most competitive nation in the world economy, allowing American businesses to make direct investments into foreign economies to produce goods at a lower cost in these environments and increasing international consumers’ access to American products. Rubio reminds voters that Tampa is the 56th best city in the U.S. to do business while Sarasota (located less than an hour from here) is the 18th best U.S. city to do business and declares that it demonstrates how much America’s prosperity requires making it the best business-friendly environment in the world, which has been done in the last 8 years through the promotion of tax reform and free enterprise and which he will do as President by reducing taxes for all Americans, including the middle-class, as well as the cost of doing business in America. He noted to voters that Florida is the third-leading state in terms of electricity production in addition of having the 2nd highest natural gas prices in the nation and that nuclear represents about 12 % of the state’s net generation, taking on the occasion to reiterate his energy plan that will get America to energy independence by taking advantage of all of America’s sources of energy (including oil, gas, coal, nuclear, solar, wind, geothermal, electricity, etc.), invest a part of revenues from oil drilling into the development of renewable energies and make us number one in nuclear energy production and export through the building of 40 new nuclear power plants in the US in the next 25 years and through tax credits for advanced nuclear projects and subsidies for the building of new nuclear power plants. He calls on voters to cast their votes for him to get America to permanent and long-term economic prosperity and full-employment.

Governor Ivan Rodriguez (R-PR) endorses Marco Rubio for President

Even though my campaign fell up short and things didn't go the way I originally planned, I know that the best way to keep America moving forward and make sure that the American Dream has no limits is to come together as a united party and that's why I officially endorse Marco Rubio for President of the United States because he is the leader that we need now. There's no candidate more qualified than him for the highest office of the world. As Chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, as a member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and as Vice-President, he has the best experience to help create jobs through the promotion of free enterprise and tax reform and to keep America safe through the promotion of strong national defense and strong American leadership.

Now, we just heard Jeff Merkley attacking Vice-President Rubio about continuing President Trump's policies. I find that funny he talks about it because Senator Merkley supported policies adopted by President Trump : he supported an amendment that would allow concealed and loaded weapons in national parks, now he's in favor of diminishing the Second Amendment just like Tammy Duckworth. Senator Merkley opposed state sales taxes until he flip-flopped and now favors higher taxes just like Senator Duckworth. And here's a thing Senator Duckworth would do the same as Donald Trump : she opposes free trade.

And if we were living in a failed economy like Senator Merkley and Senator Duckworth are claiming, we would not have saw 7 and-a-half million new jobs created, lowest Hispanic and African-American unemployment rates ever recorded and lowest national unemployment rate in more than 50 years but that's exactly what is happening. The reality is that the big government, tax-hike and job-killing policies that they adopted have failed and we need to keep moving in the right direction with the right policies. And Senator Merkley talked about protecting the interests of the middle class. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act did so as a family of four with annual income of $73,000 (median family income) saw a tax cut of more than $2,058, a 58 percent reduction in federal taxes. A single parent with one child earning $41 000 a year saw a tax cut of $1,304, a 73 percent reduction in federal taxes. Nine out of ten taxpayers with annual income between $64,000 and $108,000 earned an average federal tax cut of $1400 in 2018. These are not my words, these are the words of the left of center Institute for Taxation and Economic Policy. Similarly, 90 % of taxpayers winning between $40,000 and $64,000 got an average federal tax cut of $810, while 87 percent of taxpayers with annual income between $108,000 and $232,000 saw an average federal tax cut of $2,710. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act doubled the standard deduction for an individual from $6,000 to $12,000 and for a family from $12,000 to $24,000. 105 million Americans took the standard deduction in 2015 according to the IRS statistics of income (SOI) database. So the TCJA benefited the middle-class and yet Tammy Duckworth and Jeff Merkley voted against it, voting against the needs of the middle-class.

Our nominee, Marco Rubio, dedicated all his life to protect the American Dream and America's status as the land of opportunity, caring about the fate of the vulnerable as well as of hard working families. When he and his family lived paycheck to paycheck, the hard working of a bartender and a housekeeper who came to this country from Cuba, he managed to earn all the opportunities that previous generations could not have earned for themselves. That's why it has always been his purpose to fight to make sure that the next generation will be better off than the previous. Thanks to his legislation effort to double the Child Tax Credit, our country passed the largest tax cuts ever, ensuring strong economic prosperity and strengthening America's status as the best place in the world to do business. His sponsored 2014 VA reform law empowered the VA secretary to hold managers accountable for incompetence, negligence and corruption and to care more about veterans than bureaucrats. His co-sponsored Girls Count Act forced countries receiving U.S. aid to give birth certificated to girls at birth in order to combat human trafficking, thus freeing young girls around the world from brutality and terror.

Marco Rubio is the one true agent of change in this campaign and has the right solutions to provide change to this country. As President, he will cut taxes for the middle-class from 22 % to 15 %, index capital gains for inflation and create a tax-preferred savings vehicle, which will reduce the fiscal burden of the middle-class and give them a fair chance to prosper, to find a job, to earn higher wages and to enjoy the American Dream. He’ll expand free trade with our allies around the world so we can make America the most competitive nation in the world economy, counter-balance China's trade power, allow American businesses to make direct investments into foreign economies to produce goods at a lower cost in these environments and make America number one in auto production again. He will accomplish our path to energy independence so we can become free from foreign oil and he will do so by taking advantage of all of America’s sources of energy, invest a part of the revenues from oil drilling into the development of renewable energies so we can produce more solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric energies which will also be done through tax credits in addition of making number one in nuclear energy production and export by getting us to a total of 100 nuclear power plants.

Marco Rubio will get us to full-employment, long-term economic prosperity, keep America's status as the best business-friendly environment in the world, accomplish energy independence and a clean environment and keep America safe through strong American leadership. And we also have the chance to make history by electing him as America's first Hispanic President and we're going to prove that in America « todo es posible ».

Thank you! God bless you and God bless America!

Marco Rubio's response to Senator Duckworth's attacks in Allentown, Pennsylvania

It's clear that the Duckworth campaign's moves depend on the polls. When Senator Duckworth was leading by double digits in the polls, they did not spend any effort to attack me. Now that this race is getting closer and closer and more competitive as I'm making strong progress in the polls, they are panicking and so Senator Duckworth's pollsters told her to go on the attack and that's what she just did, broking her promise to remain positive.

I respect Senator Duckworth's military service to our country in Iraq, but as John Adams famously said « facts are stubborn things ». She decided to challenge the credibility of whistleblowers who had the courage to tell the truth and call out the corruption in the VA bureaucracy that allowed an unchecked criminal to care for veterans and she ordered them, in order to protect Rod Blogajevich, to remain silent about this scandal. She decided to challenge the credibility of men and women who bravely fought and sacrificed for the protection of our country's freedom and families. I think it is deeply offensive to doubt of the credibility of these brave service people who swore to protect us and sacrificed so much to do so.

Now she ended up talking about me being an apologist of President Trump. Actually, I have taken him on when he said things that are wrong on policy and I've condemned them. When he said things that are agressive, vulgar, inappropriate and offensive, I've condemned them. When it comes to being an apologist, Senator Duckworth knows a lot about it because in effect she is an apoligist of a Secretary of State who has been described by the majority of Americans as not honest and trustworthy, who used a private email server as Secretary of State instead of a government server, deleted 33 000 emails and put our national security in danger and who has consistently lied to the families of the Benghazi victims, telling them that a video was responsible of this radical Islamic terrorist attack, and even responding to Congress, quote, « what difference at this point does it make? » Yet, Senator Duckworth supported Hillary Clinton. And on this point about being apologist, Senator Duckworth has also been an apologist of disgraced Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich as she supported Blagojevich's 2006 gubernatorial re-election even when she knew he was under federal investigation for already a year at that time because of ethical lapses and that he was convicted of 17 public corruption charges, including mail fraud, abuse of power in attempting to gain campaign contributions from Children's Memorial Hospital, and a $1,500 check written to one of Blagojevich’s children by the husband of an appointed state worker. In the month before Blagojevich was re-elected, Rezko was indicted on corruption charges while his ally, Levine, pleaded guilty to wringing cash from firms seeking state business. And yet, Duckworth supported Blagojevich's gubernatorial bid despite of his large record of scandal, corruption and outrage. Nobody is above the law.

And I will not be lectured about fighting for America's future, because I dedicated all my life to do so. As a young man and the son of Cuban immigrants, I lived paycheck to paycheck but thanks to the hardowking of a bartender and housekeeper, my parents granted me the opportunities that they could not have earned for themselves. That's why it has always been my purpose to make sure that the next generation will be better off than the previous and that's why I'm fighting for America's future. I did so by co-sponsoring the Regulation Costs to Small Businesses Act, which required the Small Business Administration to conduct an annual study to estimate the total cost of regulations on small businesses. I did so by leading the effort to double the Child Tax Credit in order to pass the largest tax cuts in the history of this country, leading to the strong economic prosperity that America is now living through strong job creation and the promotion of free enterprise, which benefited the middle-class. I did so by taking the lead as Chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, protecting the interests of small businesses by passing legislation lowering small businesses' tax burden and increasing their competitiveness and their ability to produce, to sell and to create jobs. I did so by taking the lead in the Senate to pass the 2014 VA reform law by introducing a measure empowering the VA secretary to hold managers accountable for incompetence, negligence and corruption and to care more about veterans than bureaucrats. I did so by being among the 22 Republican senators who supported the approval of a $2 billion emergency funding to combat the Zika virus at a time when my home state of Florida accounted for roughly 20% of the recorded cases of Zika in the U.S. I did so by successfully introducing the Girls Count Act that forced countries receiving U.S. aid to give birth certificated to girls at birth in order to combat human trafficking, thus liberating young girls around the world from brutality and terror. I did so by getting Republicans and Democrats to work together to pass tough sanctions on Hezbollah and to pass the Let Freedom Reign Act, I legislation that I sponsored along with Senator Bob Menendez, to support materially the Venezuelan insurgency against Maduro's opression in the context of the Venezuelan Civil War. I did so by sponsoring the the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019 that required the Department of State to assess whether political developments in Hong Kong justify changing Hong Kong's unique treatment under US law. And I did so by helping the President to defeat ISIS and to denuclearize North Korea and Iran, which has been done by rebuilding our military and keeping it strong and keeping American leadership strong. So unlike what our political opponents try to claim, I fought to help working families and made strong contributions to broker peace.

And as President, I will keep fighting for America's future. I will do that by reducing taxes for the middle-class in order to give them a fair and decent chance to prosper, to find a job and to live the American Dream. I will do that by keeping America's status as the best place in the world to do business, by getting our country to energy independence through the investment of a part of the revenues from oil drilling into the development of renewable sources of energy and by making us number one in nuclear energy export and production by getting us to a total of 100 nuclear power plants in the U.S. I will normalize our relations with Polonsky's Russia for the sake of global freedom and global peace and stability and I will keep this country safe by keeping our military strong and by staying on offense against terror. And thanks to my experience, we're going to get America to the brightest future we can imagine through full-employment and permanent economic prosperity thanks to a strong middle-class and the promotion of free enterprise and through long-term national security and global peace thanks to a strong military, strong alliances, strong diplomacy and strong American leadership. So you can count on me to fight for your future and so I'm asking for your vote.

Thank you. God bless you and God bless America.

The next President needs to be ready to be Commander-in-Chief on Day One. And Marco Rubio has passed every test on every challenge facing America.

And Marco Rubio has been there on the ground when he became the first Vice-President to visit Iran since the Iranian Revolution and he cut great agreements with pro-American Iranian President Arsham Parsi. It was in the aftermath of that visit that Parsi announced, during a Joint Session of Congress presided by Marco Rubio that Iran was going to proceed towards their denuclearization, to stop sponsoring global terrorism and that our relations with Tehran were going to be normalized.

As a member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and as Vice-President of the United States, Marco Rubio knows what it takes to keep America safe and as President I will do that by keeping our military strong and modernize it, by standing with our allies and work to expand our alliances, by normalizing our relations with Polonsky’s Russia, by ratifying the Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty and by keeping American leadership strong.

That kind of strong leadership will defeat Boko Haram, get us to a nuclear free world, eliminate any risk of nuclear war, ensure long term global peace and guarantee that our children and grandchildren will grow up in a world in which they will know peace, security, stability, freedom and prosperity.

Marco Rubio, the proven leader with the leadership and experience that we need for America's future.

Marco Rubio's response to Ruben Gallego in Phoenix, Arizona

Governor Gallego is trying to mislead American voters on my record on veterans, claiming that I don't know what it's like to fight a war, which is simply not true. I know what it looks like to fight a war. My older brother Mario Rubio is himself a military veteran who bravely served our country in the Vietnam War. And I have a clear record of taking care of veterans : in the Senate, I cosponsored the AGREE Act, a bill that increased tax credits and exemptions for companies investing in R & D, equipment and other capital, gave tax credits for veterans opening a business franchise. And over the objections of your fellow Democrat Bernie Sanders, I successfully co-sponsored the 2014 VA reform law by introducing a measure empowering the VA secretary to hold managers accountable for incompetence, negligence and corruption and to care more about veterans than bureaucrats. Five years ago, I co-sponsored the Supporting Veterans in STEM Careers Act that helped veterans re-entering the workforce get jobs in STEM-related fields by requiring the Office of Science and Technology Policy to coordinate programs to train and transition military veterans for jobs in science, technology, engineering and math. And it was under our administration that we defeated ISIS in Iraq and Syria and so we managed to bring our troops home in honor and dignity three years ago and it was in the aftermath that the Veterans Care Financial Protection Act of 2022 has been adopted, making the federal Department of Veterans Affairs work with state and federal agencies to stop con men who are diverting federal aid away from veterans. So you don't have a monopoly on heart when it comes to the men and women in uniform who are protecting us as well as our country's freedom. I respect them as much as you do and that's why I'm endorsed by the family of your fellow Arizonan John McCain because they know that I have the plan to make sure that our soldiers' service and their fight to keep America free and safe will not be in vain. And as President, I will invest a part of budget surpluses in the development of new social security and job training programs for our veterans to make sure they will earn the best post-military service they can ever imagine.

And we're already winning Operation Ceasefire even though we have not sent any ground troops or led airstrikes there. We did it by providing military training and arsenal to the Kurds, which helped them to defeat the Turkish troops. And my counter-terrorism plan will increasingly require less ground troops by rather providing military training and material support to our allies in Western Africa so they will have the necessary tools to defeat terrorism. Under my leadership, our country will lead drone airstrikes against Boko Haram key targets, including their controlled oil refineries in order to deprive them of any means to boost their war effort and their plans for terrorist attacks. As a result, it will reduce the need for additional ground troops there and it will cost our country less as drones are significantly cheaper to purchase, fuel, and maintain than regular airplanes. As a result, we will keep America safe without putting so many lives in harm's way.

Marco Rubio's response to Tammy Duckworth's attacks in Kenosha, Wisconsin

Senator Duckworth's answer to everything is « Donald Trump, Donald Trump ». There are only 3 things that she mentions in a sentence, which are a noun, a verb and Donald Trump. If you wanted to run against President Trump, you should have run 4 years ago. Look, this election is not about Donald Trump, it is about the concerns of the American people and about the future of America. And fighting for America's future requires the right experience and the right ideas for our future and I'm proud to have fought, as Chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, to make America the best place to do business and to fight for hardworking families. I'm proud to have fought to keep our military strong in order to keep America safe against terror. I'm proud to have helped this administration to get America to the strong economic prosperity and strong national security that we are now living. And I'm proud to be calling for a middle-class tax cut for the sake of a strong middle-class, for a development of renewable energies through an investment of a part of oil drilling revenues and tax credits for renewable energy projects, for the expansion of free trade for the sake of our competitiveness in the world economy, for a modernization of our military and a maintenance of strong American leadership for the sake of our national security and global peace.

The reason why Senator Duckworth keeps mentioning Donald Trump is because she is trying to find excuses for supporting Rod Blagojevich when she knew he was under federal investigation because she is the one who suggested Blagojevich to be freed in the first place. In 2016, it was revealed that Senator Duckworth forced the people of Illinois to pay nearly $40,000 to settle a whistleblower retaliation trial resulting from her days as Blagojevich’s hand-picked appointee. Given their shared knack for getting into legal trouble, it’s no wonder why Duckworth was also rumored to be Blagojevich’s first choice to take over President Obama’s senate seat.

Meanwhile, I'm proud to have voted to override Obama's veto to a bill that would let families of those killed in the September 11, 2001 attacks sue the government of Saudi Arabia for damages because this was about holding anyone who supports terrorists accountable, and getting their victims the justice they deserve. And I'm proud to have led the charge in the Senate to bring accountability to the VA with my measure allowing the VA Secretary to fire incompetent or corrupt managers who prevented many of Florida’s more than 1.5 million veterans from receiving the quality health care they need and deserve, which became law in 2014 as part of a larger VA reform package. And I have urged Attorney General William Barr to investigate John Kerry over meetings with officials of the old Iranian regime, meetings related to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action and violating the Logan Act. And when Wall Street has been getting rich helping Chinese companies raise money on U.S. stock exchanges, without those firms being required to meet basic U.S. standards for transparency, I introduced a bill giving any foreign firm three years to make their audits available to U.S. regulators or face increased disclosure requirements and be delisted from U.S. exchanges if they didn't comply.

So if you want a candidate who fought corruption and for justice and security in America, then I am your candidate because I put the American people first, not George Soros and special interests . Because I'm fighting to make sure that America will keep moving forward and that's why I need your support and your vote. Thank you.

[Crowd cheers and applauds]

Our political opponents keep claiming that our party is not a champion of energy independence. If that was really the case, Wisconsin Governors Tommy Thompson and Scott McCallum would not have launched the Focus on Energy program with the goal of increasing Wisconsin’s energy independence by helping residents and businesses implement efficiency and renewable energy projects. Since the program’s inception, more than 56,000 businesses and 1 million residents have participated, resulting in energy savings of 1,958,770,550 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity and 97,260,374 therms of natural gas. And my energy plan will finally get our country to energy independence by taking advantage of all of America's sources of energy, by investing a part of the revenues from oil drilling into the development of renewable energies and by making our country number one in nuclear energy production through the construction of 40 new nuclear power plants in this country by 2050 and through tax credits for renewable energy products. That way, we will not only ensure strong job creation and prosperity while improving our ecological footprint but also deprive terrorist groups of revenues from our dependence on foreign energy to organize and orchestrate attacks on us and our allies. And that's why I ask for your vote to get us to strengthen our country's prosperity and security.

Source : https://www.rubio.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/home
Recently, in the context of Operation Ceasefire, our allies in the Coalition managed to take Ankara with very few casualties. This victory is about to lead us and our allies to final victory over Turkey and to the downfall of the evil and repressive regime led by Erdogan and to the restoration of democracy in Turkey. And thanks to the military training and material support that we provided to our allies, including the Kurds, they will have all the necessary tools to keep their troops safe and ensure stability and order (referring to the attack in Izmir). This victory will also bring Turkish leaders to the negotiating table and lead to the recognition of Kurdistan's status as an independent country. As a member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and as Vice-President of the United States, I have the right foreign policy experience to get us there. That requires a strong military, strong alliances, strong diplomacy and steady American leadership. As long as America leads, we give the world a chance for steady and long-term peace.

The U.S. Vice-President praised the strong US-Israel relations and thanked Netanyahu for his efforts to keep Israel safe against terror and his support to the US successful combat operations that defeated ISIS in the Middle East and to Operation Ceasefire that is about to restore democracy in Turkey, to lead to the recognition of Kurdistan as an independent state and to the restoration of stability in the Middle East.

-Vice-President Rubio lands in New Delhi, India where he meets Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. During their joint press conference, the two men touted the strength of the US-India relationship, including their 2008 India–United States Civil Nuclear Agreement (a deal that guaranteed that India utilizes its nuclear energy for economic, civil and energy matters instead of military matters), their membership in the Tehran Pact, their strong defense partnerships that combined the military powers of the 1st and 4th military powers in the world and helped defeating terrorism in the Middle East. Rubio talks about the importance for Washington and New Delhi to work together to stand up diplomatically and militarily to China’s overreach in South China and East China Sea. Noting how much his home state of Florida’s $1 billion annual exports to India demonstrate at which point India’s large and growing market matter to Americans, the Republican presidential nominee invokes the importance for the US and India to further strengthen their trade and economic ties through the adoption of a free trade agreement between the 2 countries for the sake of their mutual prosperity and also to counter China’s trade power.

-Vice-President Rubio arrives in Paris, France where he meets French President Jean-Luc Melenchon. During their joint press conference in Paris, both men praised the strength of their countries’ relationship as France was the first country to recognize the United States’ independence and helped them to secure it in the American Revolution; America’s joining the Triple Entente in World War I ensured decisive victory over the Triple Alliance; the United States freed France from Nazi occupation during World War II after the D-Day landings (which 80th anniversary has been recently celebrated); as France and the United States stood up to the Soviet Union during the Cold War, freed Kuwait from Saddam Hussein’s occupation during the Gulf War, stood together in the War on Terror after 9/11 for the sake of the preservation of freedom and democracy, defeated ISIS (that was the perpetrator of the 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris and of the 2016 one at the Promenade des Anglais in Nice) and are now standing up with their allies to ensure the success of Operation Ceasefire through the provision of military material and training to the Kurds and are turning the page to decades of feud with Russia thanks to the election of Sergei Polonsky as Russian President. Talking about the need to expand free trade with the European continent and to champion energy independence, Vice-President Rubio mentions his energy plan that would make America #1 in nuclear energy production and export by building 40 new nuclear power plants in the U.S. through tax credits for advanced nuclear projects and subsidies for building new nuclear power plants and declares that it will further reinforce France’s status as a partner to the U.S. in terms of nuclear energy import, which President Melenchon welcomed as nuclear energy generates almost 80 % of France’s electricity and will also diminish terrorist organizations' ability to organize attacks against the free world through revenues from energy dependence through imports of oil from countries in throes of terrorism.

June 27, 2024
-Vice-President Rubio visits Mexico City, Mexico where he meets Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador with whom he discussed issues such as the need for partnership to combat drug cartels as well as energy, free trade and relief aids to each other countries after hurricanes.

Own creation
Russian state media has recently reported that former Russian President Vladimir Putin, a gangster and murderer not interested in peace and seeking to destroy freedom and liberty, along with former Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev had been planning a coup against newly elected President Sergei Polonsky, seeking his overthrow and the reinstallment of a Putin regime, under which a new constitution would be drawn up wherein Putin could serve for life. But fortunately, FSB agents reported this to Polonsky, having obtained the information under the guise of being co-conspirators and they arrested Medvedev and Putin has fled to China where Xi Jinping gave him asylum. We are making it absolutely clear that Polonsky has the United States’ full support and when I’m President, this great friend to America will continue to have this support because we are a free democratic republic that stands up for the preservation and expansion of freedom, democracy and justice. And we’re going to do that by developping strong intelligence collaboration between our two countries to prevent any anti-Democratic coup and to combat global terrorism, by toughening sanctions on any country granting asylum to Putin and by freezing Putin's assets. And when I’m President, we’re going to normalize relations between Washington and Moscow in the first 100 days of my administration and Polonsky and myself will work hard together for the maintenance of peace, stability, democracy and freedom and the respect of human rights in Eastern Europe and in the Middle East. We will ratify the Fissile Material Cut-Off Treaty to prohibit the use of fissile material for the building nuclear weapons, thus eliminating any risk of nuclear war. We will be strong partners for the development of decent trade relations between our two countries for the sake of our prosperity and peaceful collaboration. Thanks to my foreign policy experience (I served in the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and as Vice-President of the United States), we’re going to get there and ensure long-term global peace through strength and long-term global stability and that’s why I’m asking for your vote in order to make such strong global peace through strength and the expansion of freedom a reality.

My fellow Americans, almost 250 years ago, our Founding Fathers successfully fought tyranny, declared the independence of a new country named the United States of America and we obtained it through engagement patriotism. During all the 248 years of America's existence, until today, we always fought for our freedom diplomatically, militarily, economically and socially and we always managed to overcome our challenges through conviction and audacity like we will always do. When my parents came here, in Miami, as immigrants, they learned about the opportunities that the American Dream is offering for every single American through hard-working and these opportunities gave their children, including me, a better life, which helped them to make their way in the American society. We need to expand that dream and make it more accessible for all Americans through job creation, free market promotion, education reform and fight against poverty, thus resulting to economic prosperity that will bring the American people together, make sure that America’s greatness has no limits and that America’s best days are ahead of us.

Thank you and happy Independence Day my friends, God bless you all and God bless the United States of America!

Marco Rubio's response to Senator Duckworth in Davenport, Iowa

Once again, Senator Duckworth questioned the effectiveness of free enterprise and tax reform in handling the economic challenges facing this country. Well, let me remind you that the only one presidential candidate in this race who has chaired the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship is me. I fought to pass legislation that lowered small businesses' fiscal burden in order to strengthen their ability to compete, to produce, to manufacture, to hire and to create jobs. And in the context of the Coronavirus, which took place under my tenure as Chairman of that Committee and which was threatening to shatter the economy, I helped pass a $377 billion lifeline for small businesses and me and Senator Cardin worked with states to approve the Economic Injury Disaster Loans for businesses affected by COVID-19, which helped those businesses to remain competitive and to earn the necessary tools to pursue their economic activities, thus helping to avoid an economic slowdown and to allow America to pursue the economic growth of the last 8 years. Because 7 out of 10 jobs in America are created by small businesses. So the best way to avoid an economic slowdown or a recession and to face America's economic challenges is to make America the best place in the world to do business, not punish them like my opponent is seeking to do through higher job-killing taxes and regulations, bigger size of government and deeper dependence on foreign energy, which are actually the policies that will hold on to the past by moving us backwards. I know what it takes to keep this economy growing and encourage job creation and that's what we're doing and that's what we will keep doing under my presidency thanks to my experience, leadership and background.

It is thanks to the adoption of the largest tax cuts in the history of this nation that we got America to the strongest economic growth in modern history. Thanks to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and to my legislation effort to pass an amendment to double the child tax credit to $2000 we made America the business-friendly environment in the world, helped creating 7 and a half million jobs, provided the lowest Hispanic and African-American unemployment rates ever as well as the lowest national unemployment rate in more than 50 years. And these tax reform policies also benefited as it resulted to a family of four with annual income of $73,000 (median family income) seeing a tax cut of more than $2,058 (which represents a 58 percent reduction in federal taxes), to a single parent with one child earning anually $41 000 of $1,304 (a 73 % reduction in federal taxes). And 90 % of taxpayers with annual income between $64,000 and $108,000 earned an average federal tax cut of $1400 in 2018. Nine out of ten taxpayers winning between $40,000 and $64,000 got an average federal tax cut of $810, while 87 percent of taxpayers with annual income between $108,000 and $232,000 saw an average federal tax cut of $2,710. The TCJA also doubled the standard deduction for an individual from $6,000 to $12,000 and for a family from $12,000 to $24,000. I'm not the one who says this, these are the words of the left of center Institute for Taxation and Economic Policy. As a consequence, the TCJA ensured higher wages for the hard-working families, including the middle-class. Yet, despite the benefits of these tax reform policies for the middle-class and for our economy in general, my opponent voted against it. But on the other hand, I have been consistent in fighting for the needs of the middle-class and hard-working Americans. And, of course, we still have work to do to make sure that all Americans will have good-paying jobs and that's why we need to do more to the middle-class and lower income Americans. And that requires keeping taxes low and passing a middle-class tax relief reducing the middle-class' taxes from 22 % to 15 % index capital gains for inflation and create a tax-preferred savings vehicle, which will reduce the fiscal burden of the middle-class and give them a fair chance to prosper, to find a job, to earn higher wages and to enjoy the American Dream. We're going to get America to energy independence by taking advantage of all of America's sources of energy (including oil, gas, coal, nuclear, solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric, etc.), investing a part of oil drilling revenues into the development of renewable energies and making us number one in nuclear energy production and export through the building of 40 new nuclear power plants in this country by 2050 and through tax credits for advanced nuclear projects and subsidies for the building of new nuclear power plants. We also need to expand free trade so we can counter China's cheating trade power and make our country the most competitive nation in the world economy, make U.S. products more accessible to international consumers, allow American businesses to make direct investments into foreign economies to produce goods at a lower cost in these environments and make America number one in auto production again. Thanks to that plan, we're going to get America to full-employment and long-term economic prosperity, expand the American Dream and preserve and reinforce America's status as the land of opportunity.

Thank you. God bless you and God bless America.

Rubio's Surrogate Schedule

Second Lady of the United States campaigns for her husband in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, New Hampshire and Nevada on economy, veterans, foreign policy and experience

Amanda Rubio campaigns for her father in Nevada, Colorado, Texas, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio and Florida on economy, social issues and foreign policy.

Brian Kemp campaigns for Rubio in the Atlanta suburbs, in Georgia, on economy, taxes, social security, gun rights and foreign policy.

Greg Abbott, Ted Cruz and Will Hurd campaign for Rubio in Texas on taxes, economy, trade, energy, veterans, SCOTUS, gun rights and foreign policy.

Doug Ducey and Martha McSally campaign for Rubio in Arizona on economy, taxes, trade, energy, agriculture, veterans, SCOTUS, foreign policy and bi-partisanship. And to counter Gallego's strength in Arizona, McSally blasted him as a tax-hike liberal out of step with Arizonans despite the benefits of the economic progress of the last 8 years on Arizona (noting his votes to raise taxes and his support to the Iran nuclear deal that handed billions of dollars to a regime that was, at the time, the largest sponsor of global terror).

Joni Ernst and Jim Jordan campaign for Rubio in Iowa, Ohio, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida on economy, free trade, energy, social issues and foreign policy.

John James, Scott Walker and Mary Taylor campaign for Rubio across the Midwest and the Rust Belt on economy, free trade, manufacturing, energy, social issues and foreign policy.

Ron De Santis campaigns for Rubio and Florida on economy, veterans, social issues, foreign policy, national security and experience.

Pam Bondi and Rick Scott campaign for Rubio on economy, veterans, foreign policy and space exploration.

Eric Cantor campaigns for Rubio in Virginia, North Carolina, Pesnnylvania, Georgia and Florida on economy, veterans, energy, free trade, education, social issues, foreign policy.

Tom Cotton campaigns for Rubio in Texas, Georgia, Iowa, Ohio, Arizona and Florida on economy, veterans and foreign policy. He touted the Vice-President's foreign policy experience, noting that whether it is on Operation Ceasefire, the threat represented by Boko Haram, the restoration of freedom in Russia through the election of Polonsky and Putin's failed attempted coup, Rubio is the only presidential candidate in this race who established a very strong, informed position that let the world know how he'll respond at those foreign policy issues as President at exactly the right time, praising him as the candidate ready to be PResident and Commander-in-Chief on Day One and as ready to make tough decisions to keep America safe against its enemies.

Recently, in the aftermath of the success of Operation Ceasefire, the President has announced that peace talks with the Turkish regime are about to begin. We managed to get there thanks to strong American leadership, to our support to our allies in the region, to the military training and material support that we provided to the Kurds to help them defeat Erdogan's Turkish forces and to strong diplomacy that sanctioned their military power as well as their oil sector and their economy in general. And thanks to strong diplomacy, we also got Sergei Polonsky's Russia to pull out Russian troops from Turkey, which gave us the upper hand at the point of leading us to victory against Turkey. And thanks to the start of the peace talks with Otkay, we are now on the right track to restore freedom, stability and peace in the Middle East.

As President, I will pursue that kind of leadership and will pursue those peace talks to make sure that Kurdistan's independence and sovereignty will be recognized. And we’re going to build strong relations with Kurdistan, diplomatically, economically, militarily and politically. And we will be strong partners for the maintainance of peace, stability and security and for the respect of human rights in the Middle East because that is the key to long-term peace and solid security and freedom.

President Xi Jinping has refused to extradite former President Vladimir Putin into Russian custody in the aftermath of his failed attempted coup aimed at re-establishing the Putin regime. Xi's move demonstrate once again that he's an enemy of freedom and peace. That's why Polonsky recently increased sanctions on China in order to stand up for the preservation of freedom and democracy. As Polonsky said, the era of dictators in the East is coming to an end and that's also what is happening right now in Turkey thanks to the success of Operation Ceasefire and to the support we provided to our allies into this campaign. And that's why, in order to protect freedom, justice and democracy in Russia and around the world, we're going to freeze Putin's assets and toughen sanctions on any country giving asylum to Putin. And thanks to a normalization of our relations with Polonsky's Russia and to a ratification of the Fissile Material Cut-Off Treaty, we're going to eliminate any risk of nuclear war, preserve, strengthen and expand freedom, justice, democracy, integrity, stability and peace in the Middle East. When I'm President of the United States, America will lead by leading, not by following because American leadership is needed in order to champion the preservation of peace, freedom and democracy and that's exactly what I will bring as President.

Republican National Committee's response to DNC attacks

We, Republicans, are lucky that our Convention will be held after the Democratic Convention in order to correct the Democrats' questioning of the effectiveness of free enterprise and strong American leadership to handle our challenges, to correct them on Marco Rubio's record and determination to bring this country together (unlike like what the Democrats are labeling as « extremism » which is what modern Democrats are actually embracing as they are so obsessed about impeaching Trump to move America backwards, are seeking to abolish ICE, to overturn the Second Amendment) - which is why he's endorsed by never-Trumpers like Mitt Romney, Phil Scott, Knute Buehler as well as by moderate Democrats like Joe Manchin and Jim Webb - and on his plan to ensure peace through strength through a modernization of our military, strong diplomacy, strong alliances, the use of drones to combat terror and a normalization of our relations with Polonsky's Russia, which will require less ground troops in harm's way. We will have the opportunity to correct them on our nominee's belief in the value of the service of our brave veterans. We will have the opportunity to explain voters why Marco Rubio has the record, leadership, experience, compassion and agenda to keep America safe, to keep this economy growing and to keep moving this country forward. We will have the opportunity to explain people why Marco Rubio actually has the right solutions for America's future and the right solutions for change through a middle-class tax cut; through America's energy independence with tax credits in renewable energy projects, investment of some oil drilling revenues in the development of renewable energy and a goal to make our country the world's leader in nuclear energy production; through investment in our country's infrastructures; through responsible immigration reform; through the promotion of free trade for the sake of our competitiveness; through new strategies that will require less ground troops and ensure long-term global peace through strong diplomacy; and through a plan that will establish a manned base on the Moon as a springboard towards a crewed mission to Mars by 2030 to allow America to reclaim its status as the leader in space exploration. That's how the right way to preserve America's greatness and keep moving this country forward and make sure that this country's future will be the brightest we can ever imagine.

Marco Rubio's response to DNC attacks

Governor Gallego keeps on repeating the same false accusation claiming that I don't know what it's like to send troops in battle. I told you this once before, Governor, and I'm sorry I have to tell you again. My brother Mario Rubio too is a veteran and served our country during the Vietnam War. He has known the hell our brave soldiers have suffered, whether it was in jungle warfare, in the enemy's detention camps where they suffered torture and anything else. So I know what it's like to send troops to war.

And unlike what Governor Gallego is claiming, we have repeatedly supported our veterans. Do I need to remind you that it was President Obama who allowed funds to be shifted from the VA to Syrian refugees, thus depriving our veterans of the care they needed? Meanwhile, I have a clear commitment towards veterans and that's why I cosponsored the AGREE Act, a bill that increased tax credits and exemptions for companies investing in R & D, equipment and other capital, gave tax credits for veterans opening a business franchise. And over the objections of your fellow Democrat Bernie Sanders, I passed the 2014 VA Accountability reform law by introducing a measure empowering the VA secretary to hold managers accountable for incompetence, negligence and corruption and to care more about veterans than bureaucrats. Five years ago, I co-sponsored the Supporting Veterans in STEM Careers Act that helped veterans re-entering the workforce get jobs in STEM-related fields by requiring the Office of Science and Technology Policy to coordinate programs to train and transition military veterans for jobs in science, technology, engineering and math. And it was under our administration that we defeated ISIS in Iraq and Syria and so we managed to bring our troops home in honor and dignity three years ago and it was in the aftermath that the Veterans Care Financial Protection Act of 2022 has been adopted, making the federal Department of Veterans Affairs work with state and federal agencies to stop con men who are diverting federal aid away from veterans. So you don't have a monopoly on heart when it comes to the men and women in uniform who are protecting us as well as our country's freedom. And despite the great potential of stronger peace and stability through better relations with Sergei Polonski's Russia, which will reduce the need to send troops to risk their lives in defense of our country, your party, including Tammy Duckworth, has worked tooth and nail to impeach President Trump because they falsely thought that Polonsky was a puppet of Washington during the recent Russian presidential election even though there's no evidence of such move. That is an attitude that was risking to spoil our efforts to ensure global peace but we didn't fell into it and that's how, thanks to the withdrawal of Russian troops from Turkey and to our efforts to provide military arsenal and training to the Kurds, we helped our allies in Operation Ceasefire to defeat Erdogan's forces even without having to send ground troops there or to conduct airstrikes, which will lead to the recognition of Kurdistan's independence and to a restoration of stability in the Middle East. And my counter-terrorism plan will increasingly require less ground troops by rather providing military training and material support to our allies in Western Africa so they will have the necessary tools to defeat terrorism. Under my leadership, our country will lead drone airstrikes against Boko Haram key targets, including their controlled oil refineries in order to deprive them of any means to boost their war effort and their plans for terrorist attacks. As a result, it will reduce the need for additional ground troops there and it will cost our country less as drones are significantly cheaper to purchase, fuel, and maintain than regular airplanes. As a result, we will keep America safe without putting so many lives in harm's way. This is not a matter of American presence, this is a matter of casualties and so with that plan, we're going to defeat our enemies and keep this country safe without having to send additional troops overseas.

When it comes to AOC's attacks on me on environmental issues, I think she forgot that I've been on the frontline of the effort to restore the Everglades. In effect, I got more done for the Everglades in one day than Alexandria Occasio Cortez did in her 6 years in political office. I worked hard getting former Senator Jim Inhofe, former Environment and Public Works Committee Chairman and a leading opponent to the Everglades, to commit, after years of opposition, to authorizing the Central Everglades Planning Project in the water resources bill. And I helped secure funds and resources for the for Everglades restoration so we make sure that in the years to come our children and grandchildren can have the same wonderful memories of the Everglades than we earned. When it comes to the Great Lakes, I opposed drilling in the Great Lakes because Great Lakes drilling is already illegal.

This election is not about me, it is about you, the American people, and about America's future. And fighting for America's future requires bringing our people together in order to get things done. We'll do so by cutting taxes for the middle-class, by making America the best place in the world to do business, by getting America to energy independence by taking advantage of all our sources of energy, by investing a part of oil drilling revenues into the development of renewable energies and by making us the world's leader in nuclear energy production and exportation through the building of 40 new nuclear power plants by 2050 and through tax credits for renewable energy projects, instead of what our political opponents want to do by taking away taxpayers' money. This is an energy plan that will deprive terrorists and other anti-American forces of any revenues from our imports of foreign oil from countries in throes of terrorism or tyranny, thus keeping our country safe. We'll do so by investing in our infrastructures, by promoting strong diplomacy and foreign policy that helped us to denuclearize North Korea and Iran and to improve our relations with Russia and that will defeat terrorism, eliminate any risk of nuclear war and ensure long-term peace through strength. That is what this campaign is all about and we have the right solutions to get us there.

He takes on the occasion to attack his Democratic opponents Tammy Duckworth and Ruben Gallego, blasting them for supporting and promoting the same failed tax-hike and big government liberal policies adopted by Strickland and that brought Ohio's economy in a turmoil, accusing them of not understanding the economy and declaring that we can't afford to repeat the mistakes of the past and reminding people that the promotion of tax-cut, small government and free enterprise policies put forward by Governors John Kasich and Mike DeWine as well as by President Trump and Vice-President Rubio made Ohio a stronger business-friendly environment and encouraged job creation through free enterprise and free market, which brought Ohio's unemployment rate from 10.3 % in 2010 to 4.1 % today and that Ohio's budget got balanced numerous times and Ohio's energy industry has been diversified through the promotion of oil production and the development of renewable energy. Rubio calls on the people of Ohio to elect him at the White House and to reinforce the Republican majority in Congress in order to pursue America's strong economic growth and get this country to full-employment thanks to his experience as Chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship through the promotion of tax reform, including for the middle-class, as well as taking advantage of all of America's sources of energy, investment in America's infrastructures and the promotion of free trade.

He takes on the occasion to reiterate his agriculture plan that will reduce taxes and regulations for businesses across this nation, including for agricultural businesses, to help them to innovate and to manufacture more tractors and seeds and other farm products, which will boost job creation, improve agricultural technologies, ensure America's subsistence, reduce the food prices through the reduction of inflation and reduce Americans' dependence on food stamps, which will reinforce their purchasing power and give them more access to food; approve agricultural subsidies in order to help agricultural communities to recover from the trade war and to strengthen farm businesses’ ability to compete and produce; champion free trade, which will lower tariffs and increase exports and imports and increase access to our products, including farm and agricultural products, for 95 % of the world market (as we represent 5 % of the world market).

Recently, Chinese conspiracy theorists falsely claimed that Sergei Polonsky ordered an execution of Dmitry Medvedev by firing squad. That is total defamation towards Polonsky. Never, would Polonsky have ordered the death of his political opponents like Vladimir Putin did time after time after time under his regime. Such claims have been disproven through the production of a video of Medvedev in his prison cell. As President of the United States, me, along with Polonsky, will stand up to Chinese campaign of misinformation just like we're going to stand up for the respect, maintenance and expansion of freedom, human rights, stability and peace on the global stage.

Own creation
In spite of what my Democratic opponents keep commenting on my foreign policy agenda in their attempt to promote an agenda weakening American leadership and retreating our country from our responsibility to keep this country safe, which would make America an easier target for our enemies, it is essential to understand that we won Operation Ceasefire even without US ground troops and without US airstrikes against Turkey but through the provision of military training and military arsenal to the Kurds, which helped our allies in Operation Ceasefire to defeat Erdogan's Turkish forces. We made it without a single American casualty there. As a result, peace talks with Turkey started and when I'm President we're going to pursue those talks in order to restore freedom and democracy in Turkey and to ensure the recognition of Kurdistan's status as an independent nation. However, there's a territorial dispute between Greece and Turkey when it comes to sovereignty over the city of Constantinople/Istanbul. Recently, President Trump and French President Jean-Luc Melenchon put forward a new solution : an independent Constantinople/Istanbul city-state like Vatican City, Monaco and Singapore. I believe it is the best solution to follow in order to secure peace and stability in the region and that is the path that I will follow as President of the United States and under my leadership, America will work to bring that solution to a vote in the United Nations and that way, we're going to rapidly put an end to that conflict so that security, peace, freedom and stability will be restored there and I have the right foreign policy experience to get us there.
