Sen. Marco Rubio released his First Communion certificate this morning to challenge a book’s suggestion Rubio was a practicing Mormon in Las Vegas, until the family moved back to Miami.
The certificate shows that Rubio recieved First Communion at age 13 in December of 1984.
“The author incorrectly claims that Senator Rubio returned to the Catholic Church after the family moved to Miami and suggests the ‘exact date of their return is in dispute’,” spokesman Alex Conant said in an email to BuzzFeed.
Rubio’s team emailed BuzzFeed a copy of his First Communion certificate.
