MARCO RUBIO: Legalization of Illegal Immigrants Comes First – Then Border Security
thegatewaypundit.com ^ | February 3 | Jim Hoft

The interview with Univision was in Spanish- Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) told Univision yesterday that legalization of illegal immigrants will come first and then new border security measures. The Examiner reported:

In a Spanish-language interview Sunday with the network Univision, Sen. Marco Rubio, the leading Republican on the Gang of Eight comprehensive immigration reform group, made his strongest statement yet that legalization of the nation's estimated 11 million illegal immigrants must happen before any new border security or internal enforcement measures are in place, and will in no way be conditional on any security requirements.

"Let's be clear," Rubio said. "Nobody is talking about preventing the legalization. The legalization is going to happen. That means the following will happen: First comes the legalization. Then come the measures to secure the border. And then comes the process of permanent residence."

Just like in 1986. Got the amnesty, still waiting for the border security and law enforcement.

He’s just like Yasser Arafat. Say one thing to the Gringos and another to his people.

Add to that, he also said he would not undo Obama’s illegal amnesty executive action until Congress passed a comprehensive immigration bill. So he is OK with breaking the law, as long as it benefits criminals.

he was toast to me when he went and ran for office.
There are people who state they would vote for him on here and one actually said immigration is not a litmus test. Well without a border there is no country, thus all the other issues are mute.

Dear Mister Rubio (I reserve the honorific "Senator" for those I might respect.) There is no way to walk this one back.

If we do not secure the border first, then more will come. I suspect that you know this, and (oddly) that you think we don't.

Toodles.

He said this in 2013, not in 2016. Not defending him, just putting the comment in context.

He’s going to have to sign in blood on this. Immigration is the ONLY ISSUE this election.

Wish the Trump and Cruz folks could drop the feud and focus on the real enemies, once they are gone, they can go back to fighting each other.

i dont care if you hate ted, if by some miracle, he takes it, you trump people have to show.

If this was 1980 Rush would be backing Bush, not Reagan.

Exactly.

If Rubio gets in then the country has gone forever. Time to learn Spanish.

Effin ahole, Mario! Legalization FIRST motivates those who aren't here yet to get here in a hurry before the border is secured. IDIOT!

Rubio's plan TRIGGERS more illegal entry. What a dumbass.
