Sorry - that's incorrect.
There is a Conservative move afoot to get FReepers to actually read and watch the things that Ted Cruz writes and says about legal and illegal immigration.
Cruz has stated on You Tube videos and in the New York Times that:
(1) He supports the Gang of Eight “Work Permit,” which allows illegal aliens to legally work in the USA, and allows them to immediately apply for a Green Card.
(2) He will not deport illegal aliens who have not broken other USA laws.
(3) He has claimed that our “immigration system is broken,” the same language used by Democrats, Jeb Bush, and Marco Rubio. But, the only broken part in that system is the total lack of enforcement of existing laws.
(4) He has called for a 5X increase in H1-B work visas, a 2X increase in Green Cards, an increase in low skill work visas for Texas farmers and ranchers, and an increase in the legal quota for Mexican and Chinese immigrants who have waited a long time for Green Cards.
Please read or watch the following links before you respond to my statements:
