he opposes a wall
he opposes deportation
he opposes cutting off benefits
he favors a “guest worker program”
he favors Mexican trucks on the roads
so... how is he against illegal immigration again??
everyone on that stage opposes mass deportations.
the wall argument is silly
the benefits subject is his weakness
everyone on that stage wants some sort of guest worker program.
mexican trucks.. don’t know, don’t care. Sounds like a union issue to me.
LINKS!
Perry does not oppose deportation - he knows that the Feds aren’t doing it. See my number 19.
He says a fence/wall works in some place, but not for the whole 1200 mile Texas border. The fence is not working where it exists in rural farm and ranch land - When illegals scale or breach the fence, Border patrol can’t get there in time.
He’s in favor of prohibiting benefits for illegal aliens. However, the Feds require us to give medical care and education through high school and then ignores that the illegal aliens are here, getting medical care at the ER and enrolling their kids in our schools for years.
Yes, when unemployment was under 5%, he favored a guest worker program that did not involve permanent residency, but allowed workers to legally enter the country to work at jobs they had.
He’s in favor of allowing Mexican trucks that meet Texas’ standards to have the same sort of access that Canadian trucks have. That’s what happens when the Nation signs a treaty: we follow the contract we agreed to.
