Yesterday, the American Conservative Union (ACU) released a scathing press release hitting Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fl) for not attending their upcoming Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). On Wednesday, it was announced by ACU Chairman Matt Schlapp that Rubio will be attending CPAC after all:

This is Rubio's eighth consecutive year speaking at the conference. Other candidates in the GOP field will be addressing the crowd at CPAC as well.
