Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) is facing pressure to identify and hold accountable an aide of his who disparaged American workers in comments to The New Yorker’s Ryan Lizza over the weekend.
Rubio has subsequently announced that he disagrees with the anonymous source of the quote but has not publicly identified who said it; neither has he indicated what, if any, actions are being taken to hold this person accountable.
Center for Immigration studies executive director Mark Krikorian, who decried the attack on American workers in a post on the National Review, told Breitbart News that Rubio should identify for the American people who gave that quote to The New Yorker and fire that person.
“It’s incumbent on Sen. Rubio to identify and remove whoever said this,” Krikorian said in an email. “Was it Chief of Staff Cesar Conda? Press Secretary Alex Conant? There’s no excuse for this person to continue drawing a government paycheck."
"It highlights the high-immigration Right’s view that Americans are expendable," he explained.
Similarly, NumbersUSA director of government relations Rosemary Jenks told Breitbart News she questions why Sen. Rubio would use taxpayer dollars to employ someone who would insult American workers.

Rubio has to come clean about this.
