Cruz team rips 'Schubio' bill ahead of immigration plan rollout
Washington Examiner ^ | 11/13/15 | Al Weaver

Ahead of announcing of his immigration plan, Sen. Ted Cruz's campaign continued to point Sen. Marco Rubio's role in the Gang of Eight immigration bill in 2013.

Cruz's rapid response director Brian Phillips tweeted out continued criticisms of the Schumer-Rubio immigration bill, panning it as the "Schubio" bill. Phillips made the comment in response to Todd Harris, a Rubio adviser, who tweeted out a story from the Cato Institute which calls Cruz's history on the issue "mixed."

More nonsense.Being FOR legal immigration and AGAINST illegal immigration is the law. Schubio's #Gangof8 was "mixed" https://t.co/5tpPuy8FFZ

- Brian Phillips (@RealBPhil) November 13, 2015

The return fire from Cruz's team comes after Rubio said early Friday that he was "puzzled" by the Texas senator's attacks on immigration given that the the two are not very "different" on the issue.

Comprehensively Screw Americans Out Of Their Country

That’s what the Gang of Eight tried to do.

Rubio is a traitor to the citizens and the rule of law.

We already knew that about the other members of that Gang, he should have too.

That’s going to stick to, and hurt, Rubio.

CATO is good on monetary issues, but socially they are very libertarian.
