Washington, D.C – Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) is set to give the keynote address at the Susan B. Anthony List’s “Campaign for Life Gala” on Wednesday, February 1 in Washington, D.C., one day after the Florida Republican primary, the group announced today.
“My pro-life beliefs are cornerstone principles for me, and I’m honored to have the opportunity to speak at the Susan B. Anthony List’s annual gala,” Senator Rubio said. “While economic issues are at the forefront of the political debate, we cannot forget our responsibility to defend innocent human life.
