Marco Rubio: In immigration reform, legalization comes first

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.”

It's good to know where he stands. He doesn't have to lie any more.  Good thing the House will kill this bill.

This is the opposite he has been saying for How Long? Wonder when we're gonna hear his "explanation" of what he "really meant".
