Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) participated in an event commemorating the sixtieth anniversary of the Bay of Pigs Invasion and honoring the heroes of Brigade 2506. Ahead of the anniversary, Rubio introduced a bipartisan resolution highlighting the importance of continuing “to support policies that promote the respect for democratic principles, civil liberties, freedom and justice in Cuba, in a manner consistent with the aspirations of the Cuban people.”
This weekend, Rubio participated in a bilingual CNN special on the invasion. A transcript of Rubio’s comment is below:
Rubio: “The loudest voices in American politics that have been sympathetic towards the Castro regime, happen to be members of the Democratic Party. And I think that has harmed the Democratic Party. But I’ve always wanted, and continue to want [the topic of] Cuba to be a bipartisan issue. Senator Menendez is an example of that, we’ve worked very closely on this issue, this is something where we’re always looking for allies.”
Rubio is the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civil Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.
RUBIO HONRA A MIEMBROS DE LA BRIGADA 2506 Y PARTICIPA EN ESPECIAL BILINGÜE DE CNN
Washington, D.C. — El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) participó en un evento de conmemoración de los sesenta años de la invasión de la bahía de cochinos en honor a los héroes de la Brigada 2506. Antes del aniversario, Rubio presentó una resolución bipartidista que destaca la importancia de continuar “apoyando políticas que promuevan el respeto a los principios democráticos, las libertades civiles, la libertad y la justicia en Cuba, de manera consistente con las aspiraciones del pueblo cubano”.
Este fin de semana, Rubio participó en un especial bilingüe de CNN que resaltó el legado de estos hechos. Una transcripción parcial del comentario de Rubio continuación:
Rubio: “Las voces más fuertes en la política estadounidense que han sido de apoyo al régimen de Castro, han venido de miembros del partido demócrata y creo que eso ha dañado al partido. Pero, siempre he querido y sigo queriendo que el tema de Cuba sea un tema bipartidista y el senador Menéndez es un ejemplo de eso. Ambos trabajamos muy de cerca en estos temas. Todo esto es algo en lo que siempre estamos buscando aliados”.
Rubio es el Miembro de Más Alto Rango del Subcomité sobre Hemisferio Occidental, Crimen Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, Derechos Humanos y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer.
