Of the 62 percent who felt a pathway to citizenship for illegals would not benefit the country, 33 percent felt it would hurt the economy, 7 percent felt it would overly burden public schools and 10 percent felt it would create public safety issues.

In Florida most Hispanic citizens are Republicans, good neighbors and great citizens. They're not backing illegals...

Sorry, that's not correct.

60% of Florida Hispanics voted to reelect Obama in 2012.

Only 39% supported Romney.

The only Republican “Hispanics” in Florida are the Cubans who fled Castro in the 1950’s and 1960’s. And that group is mostly European, not Hispanic.

The Cubans who started arriving in 1979 are definitely Hispanic, and they vote overwhelmingly for the Democrat Party, as do the Puerto Ricans, and the South Americans.

The “First Wave” of Cubans, and their children and grandchildren, probably make up less than 35% of the Hispanics who now live in Florida.
