Bill O’Reilly: “Now this week the proposed new immigration law is going to be taken up for debate in the Senate, that’s been approved, are you optimistic this is going to pass? You want it to pass in some form. Are you optimistic that is going to happen this year?”
Senator Marco Rubio: “It depends on border security, and it depends on ensuring that it doesn’t cost the American taxpayer. I think the bottom line is we can secure the border and ensure that this never happens again, and if we can ensure that it doesn’t cost the American taxpayer by people going on welfare and things like that, then I think it will pass. If it doesn’t do those things, it won’t.”
O’Reilly: “You have to have no welfare in the bill. The bill has got to say they don’t get government assistance.”
Rubio: “It does, it does and it says that already but there are ways to tighten that even further. We’ve identified ways to make it even tighter and we’ve offered amendments in that regard. And on the border security part of it, people have to know that this is never going to happen again. The border will finally be secured for national security and sovereignty purposes.”
O’Reilly: “I don’t know who is going to oppose that but if anybody does, tell me.”
