Rubio Releases Statement On The Passing Of Margaret Thatcher
Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) issued the following statement regarding the loss of former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher:
“I join Margaret Thatcher’s family and the British people in mourning the loss of one of the 20th century’s most consequential leaders.
“From a young age, Margaret Thatcher understood what limited government and free enterprise could do for people and helped modernize Great Britain’s economy. Her passion for freedom and in advocating for the dignity of people trapped behind communism’s Iron Curtain helped bring about the Soviet Union’s end.
“As someone who grew up in the Ronald Reagan era, I admired the special bond he had with Margaret Thatcher. Through her work with Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher helped deepen and solidify the special relationship between our two countries, which continues to benefit both nations to this day.
“We have lost a great leader, but Margaret Thatcher’s memory and legacy will always live on through the leadership lessons that defined her career. May God bless Margaret Thatcher and provide comfort to her family and those who admired her in Britain and around the world.”
