More quotes by Marco Rubio
I`m running for president because I want to change the direction of this country, and it will require me for the time being to miss some votes in the U.S.
Marco Rubio
Let us agree here today to adopt among ourselves a simple and unwritten rule. We will not rise to criticize someone else's idea unless we are prepared to offer an alternative idea of our own.
Marco Rubio
If support for traditional marriage is bigotry, then Barack Obama was a bigot until just before the 2012 election.
Marco Rubio
I've seen how the left has used it to accuse opponents of their version of reform of being bigots and racists.
Marco Rubio
I'm running for president because there's no way we can elect Hillary Clinton to continue the policies.
Marco Rubio
The Second Amendment is a constitutional right. I didn't make it up, the Republican Party didn't make it up. It's in the Constitution. I think it's just as important as any of the other rights in our constitution.
Marco Rubio
For many of us who were born and raised in this country, including me, it's sometimes easy to forget how special America really is.
Marco Rubio
Being a conservative can never be about simply an attitude. Being a conservative cannot simply be about how long you're willing to scream, how angry you're willing to be or how many names you're willing to call people. That is not conservative.
Marco Rubio
I'm simply asking that people who arrive from Cuba receive the same treatment as any other immigrant who comes from another country. The only difference, obviously, is that the Cuban Adjustment Act will remain in effect, that a Cuban who arrives today from Cuba may remain in the U.S.
Marco Rubio
Appeasing the Castro brothers will only cause other tyrants from Caracas to Tehran to Pyongyang to see that they can take advantage of President Obama's naiveté during his final two years in office. As a result, America will be less safe as a result of the President's change in policy.
Marco Rubio
I believe that the bigger problem is that we're seeing people who arrive from Cuba and a year and a day later are travelling to Cuba 40 times a year, they're staying, and that's hard to justify. The problem is not that I want to deny anything to anyone it is the need to justify those laws.
Marco Rubio
It's impossible to walk a block in Miami, in Los Angeles, San Antonio without running into someone who is being deeply impacted by a broken legal immigration system.
Marco Rubio
I would love nothing more than compromise. But I would say to you that compromise that's not a solution is a waste of time.
Marco Rubio
Conservatives aren't anti-immigrant - conservatives are pro-legal immigration.
Marco Rubio
We will be in this race as long as it takes. We're going to be in as many states as it takes to ensure that I'm the nominee and that Donald Trump never gets to 1,236 delegates, which is what he needs to be the nominee.
Marco Rubio
The world is a better place because Saddam Hussein does not in Iraq.
Marco Rubio
We understand that ISIS is a group that's growing in its governance of territory. It's not just Iraq and Syria. They are now a predominant group in Libya. They are beginning to pop up in Afghanistan. They are increasingly involved now in attacks in Yemen. They have Jordan in their sights. This group needs to be confronted with serious proposals.
Marco Rubio
I believe that the Cuban Adjustment Act must be re-examined.
Marco Rubio
America is still the land of opportunity for most, but it is not a land of opportunity for all. If we are to remain an exceptional nation, we must close this gap in opportunity.
Marco Rubio
The key that opens that door is proving to the American public that illegal immigration is under control. And at this point, that argument cannot be made because it is not true, it is not under control.
Marco Rubio
