Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) today announced changes to his communications staff in his Senate office.
Olivia Perez-Cubas, who has worked for Rubio since 2013, most recently as communications director, leaves to pursue opportunities outside Congress.

I am grateful for her distinguished service to the United States Senate and the people of Florida, and wish her the very best in her new opportunity.”
