The campaign of Sen. Marco Rubio (R – Florida) is set to announce on Thursday its “Jewish Leadership Coalition,” a group of 150 Republican and Democratic Jewish community leaders supporting the Florida senator’s re-election bid, according to a list obtained by Jewish Insider.

Prominent members of the Jewish leadership team include megadonor Norman Braman, Former Florida House Majority Leader Adam Hasner, Ambassador Mel Sembler, Betty Sembler, Ambassador Ned Siegel, Simon and Jana Falic, Marc Goldman, Bob Diener, and Stanley Tate, among others.

Boca Raton Council Member Scott Singer told Jewish Insider in a statement, “Marco has time and again proven that he is committed to the Jewish community and the State of Israel. In the face of threats to Israel’s security, Marco has been a vocal leader and has always stood for a strong relationship with our important ally. We need a Senator like Marco to continue to fight for a strong America and safer world.”

“Marco is the leader the people of the Jewish community need,” said Sembler.
