Secretary of State Marco Rubio on May 29 expressed his support for Rosa María Payá Acevedo’s candidacy for commissioner of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), the main body of the Organization of American States (OAS).

Payá, a Cuban activist and daughter of Oswaldo Payá, a Cuban leader of the Christian Liberation Movement who died in 2012, was nominated by Rubio in March to be the new head of the IACHR.
