Sign Petition Asking Sen. Rubio to Pull Deceptive Ad

TEXT OF LETTER:

Dear Sen. Marco Rubio,

We the undersigned are outraged that you would continue to run your "Today" advertisement that you have acknowledged misrepresents S. 744, the Gang of Eight immigration bill. We demand that you pull the ad and begin telling the American people the truth about your bill. Virtually every claim you make in the ad is either misleading or false.


* You say: "It (S. 744) puts in place the toughest enforcement measures in U.S. history." In fact, S. 744 weakens current immigration law. It calls for the completion of an electronic entry/exit system that must be used at all seaports and airports. But it excludes 106 land border entry points where most crossings take place, and it eliminates the biometric requirement. All the entry points were required under a 1996 law , which has been reaffirmed by Congress 5 times since, but every President has refused to implement it.



* You say: "No Federal Benefits." While illegal aliens will be barred from means- tested benefits, they'll be eligible to receive tax refunds, public education benefits, and college subsidies. Once green cards are issued (many after only five years), illegal aliens will be eligible instantly for Obamacare, followed soon after by the full range of welfare, Medicare, and Social Security benefits.



* You say: S. 744 "Does not encourage people to come illegally in the future." In fact, it sets the stage for the next amnesty. No provisions call for the removal of illegal aliens who entered after the December 31, 2011 deadline or who come in the future. In fact, the bill hamstrings future enforcement by giving the administration almost total discretion to not deport future illegal aliens, including criminals.



You have an obligation to come clean and be honest with the American people about the provisions of S. 744. Pulling your ad is a first step in that direction.


Sincerely,
