Rubio Statement On Senator Nelson’s Concession

Nov 18, 2018 | Press Releases

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) issued a statement today on Senator Nelson’s concession in the Florida Senate race:

“No two Senators from the same state had a better working relationship than the one Senator Nelson and I had. Even though we often voted differently, not once did that interfere with our ability to work together.

“In this era of political tribalism it is easy to forget that there is more to any of us than our political affiliation or our policy leanings. I knew Bill Nelson not just as a Democratic Senator, but also as a man of genuine faith, integrity and character. A man who served our country with a dignity that is increasingly rare in our modern politics.

“I will miss working with him very much.”
