Politico:
In a speech to a Republican Group in Miami Dade County today, Sen. Rubio announced his intention to retire in 2022.
"You know, gridlock is poisoning Washington. Nothing bipartisan is getting done. The job is very dull. And you know, maybe I'm part of the problem. So I'll leave after this term." said Rubio
Rubio was expected to be safe for a third term if he did run. Now his retirement gives Dems a window of opportunity.
