Ted Cruz, the presidential candidate who wants to increase the H-1B cap by 500%

Your link was written apparently yesterday, but it is about a proposal by Cruz in February 2013. The author at your link wrote it as if Cruz had made some comment yesterday: In defending this H-1B increase, Cruz cited a study by the American Enterprise Institute, which argued that visa workers create jobs

Cruz was proposing a TOTAL ban on ANY illegals being allowed to have a path to citizenship at the time of the comprehensive immigration bill IN 2013! Instead, he proposed a program to allow increased LEGAL immigration based on SHORTFALL verified by the Bureau of Labor.

If you'll notice, his amendment proposed in Feb 2013, iirc, was after only 2 months as a senator, but with years of experience as a Texan.
