From a Palm Beach Post Article:

"We need to control our borders, we are a nation of laws," McBride said. "That's why I'm against an amnesty program. Many Hispanics are against an amnesty program. When we were kids, we didn't like anyone jumping in line."

You can also go to the following link and see his positions on Immigration.

From the Tampa Tribune Aug 27, 2006:

McBride denied that he changed his views on immigration when he decided to run, as Collins and Monroe have charged.

He said he favors immigration reform and thinks border security should be a top priority. Although he opposes "amnesty," he said, he thinks a reform bill should allow illegal immigrants to "adjust their status" and continue working here.

At one point during the rally, however, he was photographed carrying the sign of a pro-amnesty group.

He later made a Spanish-language television spot advertising his legal services and urging immigrants to call Congress members and vote for their interests.




IUF is described as a 'pro-amnesty group' in this article.

McBride was quoted that he 'spoke for them'. Note that he made a Spanish language TV ad and urged them 'to call Congress members to vote for their interests'.

Looks to me like he changed his position when he decided or was 'encouraged' to run for the Senate.
