Barrasso Votes to Confirm Marco Rubio as Secretary of State

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), Senate Majority Whip, today released the following statement after voting to confirm Senator Marco Rubio to be Secretary of State:
“Marco Rubio is an excellent partner to work with President Trump to restore peace through strength. Secretary Rubio has extensive foreign policy experience and an unwavering commitment to our nation’s security as well as to our allies. He understands the threats of an increasingly aggressive Chinese Communist Party and will hold them accountable. With emboldened enemies around the world, his strong, principled diplomacy is needed now more than ever.”
