RJC Excited to Congratulate Senator Marco Rubio on Nomination for Secretary of State

Washington, DC – The Republican Jewish Coalition released the following statement applauding President Donald J. Trump's selection of Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State. RJC National Chairman Senator Norm Coleman and CEO Matt Brooks said:

The RJC is excited to congratulate Senator Marco Rubio on his nomination for Secretary of State.

Presidents Trump’s choice of Senator Rubio for this critical role sends a message loudly and clearly: The days of weakness and appeasement are over.

We know that with Senator Rubio leading the State Department, America will stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our allies and confront our enemies. 

Importantly, in these extraordinarily dangerous times, Senator Rubio is an outspoken defender of Israel who has always had the Jewish state’s back.

The RJC looks forward to working with Senator Rubio to course correct from the failed policies of the Democrats and build upon the historic diplomatic successes of the first Trump Administration.
