6:57:22Now PlayingSecretary of State Marco Rubio appeared before two Senate committees today and touched on various topics, from visa revocations to sanctions on Russia.
He faced the Senate Foreign Relations Committee earlier today for the first time since his confirmation hearing and he defended his overhaul of the State Department amid a proposed rescission of $20 billion in funding. Rubio also testified before the Senate Appropriations Committee this afternoon.
Rubio testified to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that prioritizing White South Africans for refugee resettlement in the US is of national interest, saying they’re “a small subset” who “are easier to vet.” In a heated exchange with Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia, Rubio did not rule out that their race is a factor in the resettlement but argued that they are being “persecuted” for being White.
WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio testifies before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio will testify this week before his former colleagues in the U.S. Congress, some of whom have said they regret voting to confirm the ex-senator because he has not stood up to President Donald Trump.
The Senate voted 99-0 to confirm the Florida Republican senator as the nation's highest diplomat on January 20, as Democrats joined Trump's Republicans in giving the president his first permanent second-term cabinet member just hours after Trump was sworn in.
Some Democrats who backed Rubio in January have said they regret their votes, as Trump has seized more control of the federal government than any modern president, including cutting funding plans that had been approved by Congress.
Rubio will tell the Senate committee on Tuesday that the $28.5 billion budget request by the Trump administration for the 2025/26 fiscal year will allow his department to continue enacting Trump's vision while cutting $20 billion of "duplicative, wasteful, and ideologically driven programs," according to prepared remarks published by the State Department.
