Senator Lamar Alexander Endorses Marco Rubio For President
Today, Tennessee Senator Lamar Alexander endorsed Marco Rubio for president. Senator Alexander is joining Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam in endorsing Marco.
Senator Alexander was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2003. He has previously served as the U.S. Secretary of Education in the George H.W. Bush Administration from 1991 to 1993, and as Governor of Tennessee from 1979 to 1987. Throughout his time in public office, Senator Alexander has been a strong advocate for conservative principles.
"Marco Rubio is the conservative candidate who can inspire us, win the election, and lead our country. The stakes are high. If our nominee does not win, Hillary Clinton’s justices will control the Supreme Court for 30 years and we’ll be stuck with Obamacare forever.
"I have watched Marco up close. I have seen him take the lead in passing new laws to impose tough new sanctions on Hezbollah terrorists, and to get rid of incompetent managers who weren’t doing their jobs to help veterans. He has proposed good new ideas for giving students more options for college. I am convinced he would be a strong and effective president of the United States."
