U.S. Representative Trey Gowdy, an influential South Carolina conservative, plans to endorse U.S. Senator Marco Rubio for president on Tuesday, Bloomberg Politics has confirmed.
The imminent endorsement of Rubio by the head of the committee that has been investigating Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's tenure as secretary of state was first reported by the conservative website TownHall. An aide with knowledge of the plans, who requested anonymity to discuss an announcement that has not yet been made official, said the announcement will come next week in Iowa when Gowdy accompanies Rubio on a bus tour.
