Marco: "We Have An Immigration System That's Not Good For This Country"

so I now by Florida Republican senator Marco Rubio member of the Senate foreign relations committee and also the intelligence committee senator welcome good morning to you glad to have you with us again one morning

thank you so Max Baucus %HESITATION a Democrat who also subsequently renounced announced that he will be retiring out

you think about it at that what we've been saying that for a while it's absolutely true we don't realize is that a lot of small and midsize companies across the country who don't have like a big human resources department are

just now starting to encounter or figure out what this law is going to mean for them next year and when they fully see what it means it's going to have a devastating impact on the economy I mean if

your small business that now figures out the next year you're going to have to completely restructure the way you provide health care for your your

chaos that this is going to create but as you point out you and a lot of other folks have been saying this for a long time but now you have you

know prominent Democrats as well as Kathleen Sebelius %HESITATION and HHS saying you know it's a lot more complicated %HESITATION

in working it out is going to take some time do is an incumbent upon the president to come out and just to to address this because there are a lot of folks across the country who are nervous about what they're supposed to do with Elvis absolutely

not only that I think it's actually wise to tation come back and say look that this thing is growing the last thing certainty

I think the president should step up and say we're going to see and it I think that's very likely a absolutely not only that I think it's actually wise to suspend implementation to come back and say look that

so I think which actually suspend implementation of obamacare obvious I want to repeal the whole thing but %HESITATION

I think the president should step up and say we're going to suspend it at a minimal lately I think that's very likely a well then the economy's not gonna do very well fact is going to continue to get worse and and you'll have to answer for that and

impact this is going to have on our economy is terrible let's talk a little bit about immigration out which obviously has been something that you've worked very hard on %HESITATION

if indeed the gang of eight plan which you've been a part of were to pass that it would actually be what they call a bonanza for

ways that if current trends hold would produce an electoral bonanza for Democrats and cripple Republican prospects in many states that they now win easily

in and of itself is a misnomer that being said let me explain something for so I don't agree with the premise of that story and second I would say yes it's true we're not doing very well right now not just among Hispanics but among a

sector of the population that doesn't fully understand what conservatism is about but politics is always about convincing people who

don't agree with you to agree with you to convince them that what you stand for is better for them and for their lives than with the other side is offering and

I would say to you that with or without immigration reform that is a real challenge that we conservatism us confront and

don't the immigration reform issue for me is not a politically motivated one it's motivated by a very simple fact what

we have today is chaos we have the fact no amnesty we have an immigration system that's not good for this country it's very bad for this country and it needs to be fixed and

I'm just trying to figure out a way to fix it I think we've come up with a a decent starting point a very good one and I hope to be able to improve upon it and I'm looking for ways to make it even better but I can tell you leaving at the way it is right now and I would say to you that we're there without immigration reform that is a real challenge that we conservatism us confront and

do well with and if we don't then conservatism is going to struggle to succeed in America I I honestly believe I'm not I

we have today is chaos we have the fact no amnesty we have an immigration system that's not good for this country it's very bad for this country and it needs to be fixed and

I'm just trying to figure out a way to I think we've come up with a a decent starting point a very good one I hope to be able to improve upon in
