"Conservative voters roared in a standing ovation Friday at the Values Voter Summit in Washington
after Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) announced Speaker John Boehner's (R-Ohio) plans to retire.
Rubio, who is running for president, shared the news that broke just before his speech, working it into prepared remarks where he questioned why a Republican Congress isn't "able to stop our country from sliding in the wrong direction."
"Just a few minutes ago, Speaker Boehner announced that he will be resigning," Rubio said to thunderous applause.
He told the crowd it is time for Republicans to "turn the page." TheHill
