Senator Rubio’s Amnesty Reversal

Since coming to Washington in 2010, Senator Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) has made an about-face in his once adamant opposition to amnesty.

While on the campaign trail, then candidate Rubio told his future constituents that “[granting]amnesty in any form… will destroy any chance we will ever have of having a legal immigration system that works here in America.”

But once candidate Rubio was elected to Congress, suddenly his opinions changed. Now Senator Rubio says he supports a plan that will give illegal aliens “the access to make their status at this moment legal.”
