Well, you can argue that it's because they view the current system as broken. So, you could say that Dems. did not want to put us on a "broken" immigration system. But, Rubio's idea would intelligently guard us from the current system to a certain extent via a NEW nonimmigrant visa status that would allow us to compete with others for residency and, eventually, citizenship. So far, a good, simple, and fair idea.
