Rubio on Lewis: Courage Is ‘the Willingness to Stand up For Your Principles No Matter’ the Consequences

RUBIO: “What I hope these young men will understand today is you are sitting in the presence of a true American hero in Congressman Lewis, one of the most extraordinary figures in America. So when we think about courage in the 21st century, courage is not being unafraid to have a negative story written about you or have people say nasty things about you. Courage is the willingness to stand up for your principles no matter what the consequences may be.”
