Washington, DC (CNN) For the second time on Saturday, a Republican senator is apologizing for mistaking the late Rep. Elijah Cummings for Rep. John Lewis in a social media post. Sullivan's post has since been deleted. The Republican senator's Facebook page now includes a post with reference to a Washington Post article on the late Georgia congressman's death. Rubio, a Republican from Florida, eventually deleted his post, replacing it with an image of Lewis and a tribute message. John Lewis was a genuine American hero.
