More quotes by Marco Rubio
My dad was a bartender that worked banquets. So that meant holidays, weekends, nights.
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
My parents were working class folks. My dad was a bartender for most of his life, my mom was a maid and a cashier and a stock clerk at WalMart. We were not people of financial means in terms of significant financial means. I always told them, 'I didn't always have what I wanted. I always had what I needed.' My parents always provided that.
Marco Rubio
Both of my parents were born into poor families on the island of Cuba. They came to America because it was the only place where people like them could have a chance.My father was a bartender. And the journey from the back of that bar to the [election 2016], to me, that is the essence of the American dream.
Marco Rubio
The world is a better place because Saddam Hussein does not in Iraq.
Marco Rubio
The American Dream is a term that is often used but also often misunderstood. It isn't really about becoming rich or famous. It is about things much simpler and more fundamental than that.
Marco Rubio
Americans chose a limited government that exists to protect our rights, not to grant them.

If support for traditional marriage is bigotry, then Barack Obama was a bigot until just before the 2012 election.
Marco Rubio
I believe we must study which changes must be made now that the immigration system has changed, because we are seeing, I believe, that at this time we are inviting people to come to the U.S. on very dangerous trips.
Marco Rubio
Obviously I don't agree with everything he [Donald Trump] says. There's a lot that we have a difference of opinion on. But we can't ignore that he's touched on some issues that people are concerned about. If you look at the statements he made this week, obviously I think he made them partially to recapture the limelight after having lost it.
Marco Rubio
Imagine if we didn't have a President traveling the world bad mouthing America....that's the UN's job.
Marco Rubio
People end up fleeing countries who adopt economic policies based on these flawed principles. And more often than not, they come here.
Marco Rubio
From my perspective, what I'm really focused on, is making sure that, for the broadest number of Americans possible, limited government and free enterprise, the principles that have truly helped build our country into an exceptional one, is one that is being sold to and appeals to the broadest number of Americans.
Marco Rubio
Obama wants to ruin America. Hillary [Clinton]too.
Marco Rubio
You know what the fastest growing religion in America is? Statism. The growing reliance on government.
Marco Rubio
The children of the Reagan Revolution are ready to assume the mantle of leadership.
Marco Rubio
I want immigration reform to pass, I want people to be able to come out of the shadows.
Marco Rubio
Muslim communities are the ones that going to see radicalization happening at a mosque or hear it in the community or even among their own family members. And the other part is that there is a narrative that ISIS and other jihadists pose that this is a war between Muslims and the rest of the world.
Marco Rubio
I am personally open - after all that has happened and after ten years in that probationary status where all they have is a permit, I personally am open to allowing people to apply for a green card.
Marco Rubio
I want people to make a lot more than $9. $9 is not enough. The problem is that if you can't do that by mandating it in the minimum wage laws. Minimum wage laws never worked in terms of helping the middle class attain more prosperity.
Marco Rubio
