Sen. Rubio Looking to Address Misinformation Being Spread About Immigration Reform

Conservative pundits and news outlets have been taken to task

|


Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., is running a campaign-style press operation to push an immigration overhaul, a fitting move for a politician who needs it to bolster a rumored 2016 presidential bid.

Rubio's Senate office has adopted a rapid- response strategy similar to Obama for America's vaunted 2012 tactics. The Florida Republican's team, however, is focused on taking down what it believes to be rampant misinformation about a bipartisan immigration bill crafted by the senator and seven of his colleagues.
