House Speaker Marco Rubio said he would meet with FAMU students believed to be marching toward the capitol, if they so desired.

“The Martin Lee Anderson episode is a tragic episode in Florida’s history,” he said. “It’s an understatement to say it’s not one of our proudest moments. Anyone who sees that videotape understands that what happened there was a tragedy, and was unfortunate. I think everyone recognizes that for the most part.”
