Cruz’s 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.
No he isn't. He isn't saying anything. That amendment has been dead for over 2 years. It is no longer any consideration AT ALL in the Senate.
Cruz proposed a pair of killer amendments to the gang of 8 comprehensive immigration bill. Harry Reid hated Cruz's amendments so much that he killed them right away.
Why do you think he killed them? Take your best guess.
