In 1984, when several political parties were legalized, he participated in the creation of the "Independent Democratic Left" party, better known as the IDI. In 1989 he founded, together with other politicians, the Vertiente Artiguista, a group within the Broad Front. In 1994 he was elected National Representative by Florida Department.

On May 27, 2012, for the first time in its history, the Broad Front held open elections to elect its highest authorities; Rubio competed for the presidency with Mónica Xavier, Ernesto Agazzi and Juan Castillo. Finally, Monica Xavier was elected. [4]
