Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) is doubling down on his support for in-state tuition for illegal aliens.
On ABC, George Stephanopoulos asked Rubio about his work in the Florida statehouse in which he "co-sponsored legislation to provide in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants." Stephanopolous asked Rubio directly: "Do you stand behind that position now?"
Rubio said that he "absolutely" stands behind that legislation:
RUBIO: It was a very narrowly drafted bill. You had to have a certain GPA, you had to live in the U.S. a long time, you had to graduate from a Florida high school. It was very narrowly tailored to high-performing students who found themselves in a situation where they were brought here by their parents when they were 5, didn't even speak another language except English and therefore couldn't attend college because they were being charged like they were from out of state. They still had to pay for college but they paid for what people paid when they lived in Florida. They had to be high school graduates of Florida.
STEPHANOPOULOS: So you stand behind that?
RUBIO: Yes, of a narrowly tailored bill like that, absolutely....

I absolutely support retirement for The Rube.
How’s the shark look from up there Fonzi...I mean Rubio

FU MR
What about planetary aliens?
Heartless bastid.
What a weasel. And I find his voice very irritating.
Buh-bye, Rube.
He said instate tuition rates for illegal residents in Florida. Total different from the head line.
Just go away Marco.
Rubio is an idiot

So we are treating people who are here illegal BETTER than someone from Say Georgia?
Also, What about someone who has both parents commit a crime and their parents end up in jail, are their scholarships for them? No... gee didn’t think so.
While the kid themselves may not have actually cross the border or did so when they were UNDER their parent’s jurisdiction there are still consequences for a parent’s action same as if both parents committed ANY OTHER CRIME. CRY me a G-D River.
Rubio is a Shamnasty A-hole.
Gee. Last time I went to get a new driver’s license, I had to first visit the State DMV office and get an OFFICIAL COPY of my Birth Certificate to prove I was an American Citizen.
Here’s the funny part. They asked me for my old driver’s license as PROOF of ID.
Must be nice to be an illegal. No ID, you can vote, get a driver’s license, and go to college. (and probably run for President)
correction:
Last time I went to get a new driver’s license, I had to first visit the Local Health Department office ...
Good grief.
So a U.S. citizen who does not live in Florida should pay higher tuition than a Mexican citizen?
Marco, the word “illegal” means a crime has been committed. In a sane world that criminal would be arrested and deported instead of receiving free college tuition at taxpayers expense, you simpering jackass. Besa mi culo, pendejo.
“Adios, MoFo!”
What a Fk Whore!
