Both posts 63 and 72 cover what this was really about-Yet you persist in trying to twist a two year old dead amendment into an attack on Cruz.

Cruzs official press release on his amendment.
US STEM workers are not going to like it.”
How that is “twisting “ anything is beyond me. It’s what he said about the amendment.
Cruz is my preferred candidate, I’m not a child that has to think he’s perfect...
It is a good point that he’s setting a maximum number and not a recommended or required number of visas.
He’s basically saying there should be as many as needed- which is reasonable to me and fits in with the view of the AEI.
STEM workers think- correctly- that the determination of how many are “needed” is done unfairly.
Their beef is really not with Cruz’s maximum number, but the maximum number is all that protects them so I understand their dismay.
