By contrast, in his prime-time Fox News response, Rubio did not call for Muslim immigration curbs of any kind, although he did admit ISIS is trying to infiltrate the refugee program. In fact, Rubio has previously said he’d “hate to use” Congress’ power of the purse to block funding for Obama’s refugee program.
Fox News’ Bret Baier did not ask Rubio about his statements in favor of bringing Syrian refugees into the United States.
Fox News’ Rupert Murdoch is a co-chair of the Partnership for a New American Economy, which has supported Rubio’s Gang of Eight bill and new I-Squared bill – both of which would dramatically expand Muslim immigration into U.S. communities. Echoing the group, Rubio’s campaign theme is “A New American Century.”
As Conservative Review’s Daniel Horowitz has explained, Rubio’s 2013 immigration bill would have substantially expanded the admission of Muslim refugees. “The Gang of 8 bill,” Horowitz wrote, “created an entire new pipeline for refugees… In totality, [Rubio’s] bill would have created endless avenues for this president to bring in an unlimited numbers of Islamic immigrants from the most volatile corners of the world.”
Rubio’s 2015 I-Squared bill would substantially increase Muslim migration as well.
On Thursday, Rubio voted against an amendment offered by Sen. Paul to pause immigration from more than 30 Muslim nations with Jihadist movements. Both Senator Rubio and Senator Graham – the two Gang of Eight representatives running for President – opposed Paul’s amendment.
Cruz voted for Paul’s amendment, which failed 89-10.
Both Paul and Cruz opposed the Gang of Eight bill which, had it become law, would have issued 33 million green cards in a single decade.
