U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio supports President Donald Trump’s promise to build a wall at the Mexican border but says it won’t address the main path that undocumented immigrants use to arrive in Florida.

"In Florida, 70 percent of the people here illegally came on an airplane," Rubio, a Florida Republican, told reporters while visiting growers in Immokalee Jan. 27. "They overstayed a visa -- the wall isn't going to address that."

Rubio, who along with Trump advocated for implementing a system to track visa overstays, is one of many politicians to raise concerns about immigrants overstaying their visas -- in 2015 he said that nationally 40 percent of illegal immigrants had overstayed a visa.

This is exactly why we need COMPREHENSIVE immigration reform of which the wall is only a portion. Marco was right years ago about immigration and he is correct today. Marco is one of the only politicians with the guts and Foresight to create common sense immigration reforms. In the meantime Trump needs to completely disapprove all visa requests into this country until Marco can rally enough support.
