Secure the border 1st, this is not debatable.

Secure the border, deport the illegals that are already here, and solitary confinement prison sentences of no less than five years for second offenders... simple.

Take the talking points that you have been making the rounds with and write them down on a piece of paper. Now submit that half a page of good reform as a replacement for this crappy legislation. You can then spend the rest of your career trying to get the other 1499 1/2 pages passed. What are you thinking?

You are selling us out. Savior of the Republican Party? More like its undertaker. Are you too dense to see legalized guest workers is a much better way for us than citizenship. Why cheapen what my dad gave his life for! I have no respect for you or any other traitor that wants to sell our country out. When you first hit the lights as a young conservative I thought you were pretty good. Now, you talk like a phule.

The main reason Democrats want illegal immigrants is for their vote. Read the Mexican rules for immigration and use some of their laws especially the part about NOT being allowed to vote,ever,affecting their politics,and several other laws we should consider.Of course it will never happen as we do not have the guts.

NO Amnesty for those here illegally. Enforce the current laws and stop the flow period. We have too many Americans out of work.

Senator Rubio...you asked now, after an immigration bill has already been introduced, how to improve the bill. This is after we (your constituents) trusted your word to protect our borders, particularly in this time of economic recession and massive unemployment. So, here's how to improve the bill...KILL IT.

NO, No, NO. Let each of the current illegals be deported back to their native countries and start the legal process to enter legally--Each can be issued a special Rubio "go-to-the-head-of-the-line" ticket,button so they can cut in the line sooner on their lawful attempt to enter and gain citizenship. No if's, and's or votes.

So, you are saying that all government assistance will be withdrawn from all the people who are hear illegally. All the foodstamps, schooling and healthcare will be taken away from them???? I doubt it! And you wonder why we are going broke!!!!! Secure the borders and send them home!
A visit to the “Help Us Improve the Bill” page shows the senator has posted just 147 out of the 1,100 suggestions he has so far received. Rubio’s staff is reviewing each one — a wise move, given the emotions that the immigration issue can involve and the tendency of some people to say nasty things on the Internet. But even after screening for foul language and general content, the suggestions Rubio has so far received are remarkably negative. Actually, they are overwhelmingly, crushingly negative, criticizing a wide spectrum of issues included in the Gang of Eight bill. The commenters Rubio has invited to speak really, really, really don’t like what he has done.
I would say that if you have a Twitter account that this is what it is for. We need to get the word out to as many people as possible and flood the zone. Try and overwhelm his website with comments. Get people talking about it. It was stuff like this that killed the gun control legislation...especially the sentiment that existing laws need to be enforced. Because that really is what it's all about when you boil it down.
You want to improve the bill? Do it the same way we "improve" cancer: get rid of it!
The essential starting point is to implement meaningful border security. Only then can we even begin to have a conversation about the status of those who have already entered the country illegally.
The current proposal is like debating what to do about the water-damaged flooring in the bathroom even as the overflowing sink faucet is still running full blast. Your first step is to turn off the water!
Mr. Rubio, with all due respect.
You politicians think you can wear the American people down by continuing to press for those things we've already clearly said we do not want and will not accept.
This issue is no different.
People who are here illegally broke the law. Either we are a nation under the rule of law, or we are a nation whose laws are subject to the whims of men.
Men such as yourself, apparently. And I can't tell you how disappointed I am with you, after your bright beginning on the national stage.
I can solve the illegal immigration problem, right now, today:
1) Secure the border with deadly force.
2) Cut off all - ALL - welfare benefits to non-citizens. Yes, even illegal children.
3) Make it a felony to employ an illegal immigrant.
This would solve the problem. You know it, and I know it. The problem is, as the evidence suggests, politicians do not want the problem actually solved. Politicians want to use the issue for political fodder, and ultimately, the Leftists want a huge influx into the underclass for the purpose of demagoguing class warfare.
Thank you for reading.
Good letter, IDP.
A threat or defamation will at best be rejected.
The best approach is a well thought out, firm, and rational statement.
One must get his attention, keep it, and cause him to consider the
thought; otherwise it will detract from the purpose.
NOW he wants help "improving the bill"?!
Rubio, Rubio, where fart out thou, lout Rubio?

Rubio told (http://www.politico.com/story/2013/04/marco-rubio-immigration-bill-cant-pass-the-house-90789.html?hp=f2) Mike Gallagher, a nationally syndicated talk show host. “It will have to be adjusted, because people are very suspicious about the willingness of the government to enforce the laws now.”
He continued: “That is a very legitimate suspicion, it’s one that I share, and if there’s anything we can do to make [the bill] even tighter … that’s exactly what we should be working on.”[/blockquote]
Looks as if he paid heed to those comments.\
If he shared the suspicion, he wouldn't give us this bill. He would know better.

It's only a gut-feeling but there's been something unsettling (read: phony) about him from the first time I saw him. Pubbies have such a tendency to "eat their own" that I've been reluctant to trash him, but I can't shake the sensation.
Whatever my feeeeeeeeeeeelings about him, I'm not buying his proposal. The reason why is simple - I do not trust congress, I do not trust dhimmicrats, hell - I don't even trust pubbies!
It doesn't matter however because Rubio knows better than we what's best for us.
(Where have I heard that before?)
Nice mates.
Try hanging out with a better class of...well, find some real humans, OK?
