On Monday, the US Senate reached a unanimous decision to confirm Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, resulting in a vote of 99-0. This confirmation marks a significant moment as it is the first action taken by the Senate regarding the cabinet nominees of President Donald Trump. It may also signal the end of Rubio’s tenure as a senator for Florida, a position he has held since 2011.
During the confirmation hearing on Wednesday, Rubio expressed his appreciation for Trump's trust in him, stating that he would prioritize maintaining Trump's foreign policy objectives as a central focus of the U.S. Department of State. After the successful vote, he informed the press that he anticipates being sworn in the next morning. At 53 years old, Rubio carries a rich heritage, being a descendant of Cuban immigrants.
