Doesn't Numbers USA essentially want to stop all legal and illegal immigration? That's an ultra-ultra right org. However, not all members of Numbers USA oppose Rubio's idea. Notice:

"Of the members of the House Immigration Subcommittee I contacted, only Dennis Ross (R., Fla.) got back to me with a positive comment: 'As a 5-of-5 NumbersUSA Member of the House, I am unashamed to say there is a lot to like about his proposal.'"

Plus, there is this: For now, congressional Republicans have remained largely silent. Representative Steve King (R., Iowa), one of the most influential Republicans on immigration, said in a statement: “Senator Rubio contributes significantly to the national debate through his honest involvement in the public dialogue, and I’m happy to work with him on any subject — but I cannot comment on any bill until I see it in its final form.” Neutrality is evident here but neutrality now is better than a fuck you, which would happen had it been a proposal from Dems.

I still say that we should wait to see how things play. But, as always, be prepared.
