Does Marco Rubio Think American Workers Can't Cut It?

This is a logical question to ask, not only because of the Senator's role in pushing the immigration reform shamnesty bill through the Senate and getting House members who are in the pocket of companies that want to hire low cost cheap labor like Paul Ryan and John Boehner to go along with this lipsticked pig of a plan.  Also, Rubio seems to like to employ anti-American staff members.  Take Rubio aide Enrique Gonzalez.  This man said the following, according to the Corner:

[Rubio aide Enrique] Gonzalez helped to unlock the deal with labor and the Chamber of Commerce. The two biggest sticking points were wages for foreign workers (the unions wanted them to be higher) and the objections of the Building and Construction Trades union, which argues that plenty of Americans are looking for this kind of work.

Rubio sided with the Chamber against the construction workers. ‘There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it,’ a Rubio aide told me. ‘There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.’ In the end, the wage issue was settled to the A.F.L.-C.I.O.’s satisfaction, and the Building and Construction Trades union won a cap on the number of visas for foreign construction workers.

So, again, does Senator Rubio think American workers can't cut it?  And does he think giving amnesty to 11 million workers who will not be a penalty to hire under Obamacare to companies is going to put more AMERICANS to work? 

Here is what Rubio's spokesperson, with egg on their face, said:

  We strongly objected to the magazine including that background quote in the piece because it’s not what Sen. Rubio believes or has ever argued. In truth, Sen. Rubio has always said the reason we need a robust temporary worker program is to create legal avenues for US businesses to meet labor needs when not enough Americans apply for jobs. This is a persistent issue in many industries, like agriculture, and has been a draw for illegal immigration in the past. The legislation that Sen. Rubio agreed to sponsor creates a robust temporary worker program to meet our economic needs while protecting American workers and wages.

Sen. Rubio believes that American workers can compete against anyone in the world.

In other words, we are ticked that the cat has been let out of the bag that Senator Rubio employs people who are against the American worker but are working hard to make sure that illegals can be hired with no penalty til hell freezes over.

Senator Rubio, shame on you!
