Rubio Campaign Press Release - Check Out This Massive List of Kansas Grassroots Leaders Backing Marco Rubio
As Marco rallies across Kansas, the Rubio campaign announced growing support across the state. Today, additional state legislators, a team of grassroots supporters, and a group of Kansas college Republican presidents announced that will be caucusing for Marco tomorrow. This announcement follows the release of a list of 27 Kansas elected officials that are supporting Marco.
Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce says its about expanding the American dream:
I am thrilled that so many influential elected officials, supporters, and young people across Kansas are rallying behind Marco ahead of tomorrow's caucuses. Marco has the ability to inspire the next generation of conservatives and bring more people to the party as he shares his plan to expand the American Dream for future generations, and that's why he is the Republican that Democrats don't want to run against this fall.
Rep. Erin Davis praised Marco's grasp of national security issues:
Kansans understand that these are serious times and we need a serious leader as Commander-in-Chief. Marco is a proven conservative leader who understands the struggles of working families and the national security challenges we face as a nation, and he will make a wonderful President.
