US Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) is scheduled to headline a fundraiser Wednesday night hosted by Philip Rosen, the co-head of the real-estate practice at Weil, Gotshal and Manges LLP. The fundraiser is $1,000 per person or $2,700 to be a co-host, according to the invitation obtained by Business Insider.
Bush, meanwhile, will be the main attraction at a breakfast reception Friday at the Hilton in midtown Manhattan, according to the invitation for that event obtained by Business Insider. The Bush breakfast is $2,700 per supporter. Those who help raise and contribute a combined $27,000 earn co-host status and a "photo opportunity."
Some of the listed co-hosts on the Bush reception include Ken Lipper, a financier and the former deputy mayor of New York; Alex Navab, the head of Americas private equity at the firm KKR; former Barclays managing director Larry Wieseneck; and Scott Kapnick, the CEO of Highbridge Capital Management.
The list of the Rubio fundraiser's attendees, a bit shorter overall, includes hedge-fund manager Daniel Arbess; Wayne Berman, the senior adviser for global government affairs at the Blackstone Group; Courtney Deduldig, the executive vice president of McGraw Hill Financial; and Joe Wall, the DC-based vice president of government affairs at Goldman Sachs.

Rubio's campaign announced last week that it raised a bit more than $6 million in the third quarter. The campaign also reported $11 million cash on hand at the start of October. The Bush campaign hasn't released fundraising figures for the third quarter.
The Bush campaign declined to comment. A representative for Rubio didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
