English/ Español: Rubio Statement on Supreme Court
Statement
Issues: Judicial Branch
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) issued a statement and video message on the forthcoming retirement of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer and President Joe Biden's impending nomination.
"My decision on any Supreme Court nominee will be based on the individual's commitment to original intent and understanding that the Supreme Court is a "trier of law' appellate court and not a "trier of fact' trial court," Rubio said. "This is critically important because too many in the federal judiciary today believe it is appropriate for judges to craft new policies and create rights instead of interpreting and defending the Constitution as written."
