Well, I dont know about others, but Ive done more immigration than Hillary Clinton ever did, Rubio said in an interview with NPR News released Tuesday.

I mean, I helped pass an immigration bill in a Senate dominated by Democrats. And thats more than shes ever done. Shes given speeches on it, but shes never done anything on it, the Florida senator said.

We still need to do immigration reform and I think the American people are willing to do that and not until they know that future immigration is under control, Rubio told Fox News Sean Hannity Monday.

Rubio would require immigrants who arrive in the United States illegally to come forward, undergo a background check, pay a fine, start paying taxes and then, over time, receive a work visa, he said. Once people have proven themselves over a decade, they can apply for citizenship.

Rubio, who joined the Senate in 2011, previously signed on to the so-called Gang of Eight Senate bill that would have overhauled the countrys immigration system but later backed away when conservatives decried the legislation as allowing amnesty for the roughly 11 million people currently living in the United States illegally.

Rubio came out swinging against the former secretary of state during his campaign announcement Monday, calling her a leader from yesterday promising to take us back to yesterday.

He also fielded questions about his perceived lack of experience in multiple interviews.

President Obama has been a failure not because he was only in the Senate for four years hes been a failure because his ideas are bad, Rubio told Hannity.
