Marco Rubio Buys Handgun To Fight ISIS
“I have a right to protect my family if someone were to come after us,” he said Sunday on Meet the Press.
“In fact, if ISIS were to visit us, or our communities, at any moment,

County Center and face no punishment
for failing to meet minimum
disclosure requirements.
And here's what it has led to:
The fourth most lobbied person in the county in 2015 was "Incomplete."
The lobbying registry is the public's only window into who is trying to
influence government.
And despite mechanisms for the County Attorney's office to punish violators, action is rarely, if ever, taken. here
