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.

There is no shortfall in IT.

Face it, he needs to walk back his position on H-1b to get my vote. You cannot polish this turd. Even if he reverses his stance I have to decide whether I believe him. Your mileage may vary, but cut the BS, he is a big H-1b visa proponent.

I'm an American that is in the IT industry. I ‘m against any more foreign workers coming into the USA to take my job away.
we have enough immigrants what 80 million LEGAL and 50 million illegal? . most jobs go to immigrants. there are 330 million people in the USA . enough . cruz seems to be for bringing in foriegner to take my job away. most Americans don't want any more immigrants and neither do I even if i wasn't in the IT industry. why do we need to bring in 3rd world scum to voted for socialism as immigrants do see california.

your Cruz is for bringing in foreign Muslim Indian programmers cause some gov agency says there is some shortfall. this is an invasion. my city is overrun by immigrants. I feel like I'm in mogadishu, India, Haiti and in Mexico city
