It was so much that had been going on for a number of years. So there was no one who felt more dejected than our little group that was gathering regularly trying to come up with ways to slow down the Gang of Eight bill because we knew that once this handsome. young. articulate guy that had just been elected from Florida was talked into being the leader on the billvery clever getting him to be the leader on the billwe knew it was going to be a very. very. very difficult thing to stop. Going back. here is an article from April 15 of 2013 by Byron York of the Washington Examiner: "A Look Deep Inside the Gang of Eight Billand How Theyll Sell Immigration Reform to Conservatives." He points out regarding this Gang of Eight bill. he says: "Of course some in the GOP are still panicked by last Novembers election results and will be inclined to sign on to almost any deal. But many of the more conservative Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill will have to be convinced that the Gangs proposal is an acceptable way to go. It wont be easy." Anyway. he points out that. "Starting this week. with the release of the bill. the Gang will launch an extensive public information campaign"-with Senator RUnlo leading-"lots of press releases. frequently asked questions. and fact sheets specifically addressing the concerns about reform that conservatives have raised in recent months." It also talks about. "The GOP Gang"-the GOP Gang of Eight. he is talking about-"members know full well that the Federal Government has promised all those measures and more over the years. and the border is still not secure and businesses still hire illegal immigrants. For example. Congress has passed multiple laws requiring entryexit systems similar to what the Gang will propose. and the system has never been built.
