Senator Rubio Stand Firm: Fight For Florida Radio Ad
(MIAMI, Fla.) A radio advertisement released today, by Fight For Florida, Inc. on Spanish language radio stations across South Florida, asks Senator Rubio to stand firm in his conviction for a comprehensive immigration reform bill that is both fair and compassionate. Recent statements made by the Senator have shown that his resolve is weakening and that he is open to compromising on the bill he drafted as a member of the “Gang of Eight” to make it even harder for the 11 million aspiring Americans to become citizens. The advertisement asks listeners to call Senator Rubio’s office and urge him to stand firm in his convictions.

Remember what WE WANT for ALL workers:
- We want to make sure the border security triggers do not thwart citizenship for the 11 million.
- We want immigrant workers to be fairly paid and fully protected so they aren’t pitted against American workers in a way that undermines the wages and working conditions of all.
- We want families, including adult children of all ages and the siblings of U.S. citizens, to be given a chance to reunite with loved ones.
- We want the definition of families to include LGBT families.
- We want to roll back harsh detention and end deportation policies, except for felons, and stop the separation of families.
- We want to ensure that immigration enforcement is properly checked by safeguards, accountability and meaningful due process.
- We want immigrants from all areas of the world, including regions historically underrepresented, to be given an equitable opportunity to be admitted to America.
