Pro-immigrant protesters interrupted Jeb Bush's much-awaited presidential campaign launch Monday at Miami Dade College, an unexpected moment for one of the most pro-immigrant voices in the Republican 2016 field.
Midway through his speech, a group of people in the bleachers revealed shirts that read "LEGAL STATUS IS NOT ENOUGH" and started yelling as Bush spoke.
