Marco Rubio, US Secretary of State, has been attending his son's college football games using government aircraft, costing taxpayers over $1.2 million, according to the Washington Post. Rubio, who is required to use government planes for security reasons, has reimbursed the government for the cost of economy-class tickets but not the full cost of the flights. The Post's estimate is based on flight hours and Pentagon reimbursement rates. Rubio has stated he will continue to attend his son's games, emphasizing the importance of family events. The article also notes that Rubio has not announced any plans for a 2028 presidential bid, despite being considered a potential contender.
