The issue pages of Sen. Marco Rubio’s (R-FL) presidential campaign seem to be peaking out his campaign website, even though his campaign platform hasn’t been unveiled yet.

Just a few hours before a scheduled annoucement, which many expect to be his presidential bid, Business Insider uncovered the issue pages on Rubio’s website. While the website currently only shows a teaser for tonight’s announcement, a sitemap revealed a list of URLs that appear to be for various positions of a presidential campaign.

They include, according to Business Insider:

Stand with farmers

Stand with veterans

Cuba

Protect 2nd Amendment

Repeal Obamacare

Stand with Israel

No net neutrality

Cut taxes

Balance budget

Stop ISIS

Strong military

American dream

National security

Tax reform

The Rubio tax plan: simplify, invest, grow (video)

Government is crashing the internet party

Country (video)

Worst negotiator (video)

Dreams (video)

Iran

Protecting life at every stage

It begins

Another URL was called “worst negotiator” and could be a video attacking President Barack Obama on his administration’s negotiations with Iran on its nuclear program.

The URLs don’t seem to have been used previously, Business Insider said.

Rubio hasn’t formally announced his candidacy yet but the Associated Press reported early on Monday that he told donors he will announce his candidacy Monday evening.
