Florida Senator and up-and-coming Republican leader Marco Rubio might not call Miami home for much much longer—ABC News reports that he’s pondering relocating his family up here to Boomtown:

An aide to the Senator says that while a move for the whole family has not been “finalized” the Senator is exploring the option of uprooting the his wife and four kids (ages 10, 12, 8 and 5 years-old) to relocate full-time to Washington, DC.

The Rubio’s four-bedroom West Miami property was put on the market for $675,000 in November of last year, indicating a move to Washington is imminent.

An aide tells ABC News that since the Senator is away from his four young children during the week if he can sell his home in Miami he would be able to afford to move his wife and kids to Washington during the school year. Currently, Rubio, like so many other Senators reside in an apartment alone during the week while they are in Washington, DC.

We, for one, welcome Rubio and his family to our fair city. While it’s recently been all the rage for some members of Congress to sleep in their offices, we’d like to think that living among us will make legislators more aware of the fact that “Washington” isn’t merely some mythical big-government beast that they must parachute in and slay. We may not have Miami’s weather, but hey, this is still a great town to call home.
