U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio will testify before Congress this week, facing sharp questioning over his alignment with President Trump’s foreign policy. Lawmakers—some of whom supported his confirmation—are expected to criticize deep foreign aid cuts, the merging of USAID into the State Department, and moves to lift Syria sanctions.

Rubio, once an advocate for foreign assistance, is also likely to face questions about U.S. policy on Gaza, immigration enforcement, including comments about Canada and Greenland.
