"All of the these men where putting in amendments meant to sabotage this bill."

Then you might want to reread the letter. Particularly the last line.

"We want immigration reform to pass ---"

Odd if your intent is "sabotage".

Exactly!

” Cruz also noted that he had not called for deportation or, as Mitt Romney famously advocated, self-deportation. Cruz said recent polling indicated that people outside Washington support some reform, including legal status without citizenship.....So post-Gang of Eight, Cruz stressed that he hadn’t opposed permanent legal status, called *citizenship* the “poison pill,” noted that he hadn’t called for mass deportations, and touted polling in support of the position he’d advocated (legal status without citizenship). I don’t have a problem with Cruz’s stance, mind you — I just think it’s disingenuous for Cruz to pretend that it isn’t — and never was — his own.”

No, Accurately Fact-Checking Cruz on Immigration Isn’t a ‘Smear’

The whole sentence was...

“We want immigration reform to pass, but only if it actually fixes the broken system, rather than allowing the problems to grow and fester.We want immigration reform to pass, but only if it actually fixes the broken system, rather than allowing the problems to grow and fester.”

At the close of the letter about voting no on the bill. It isn’t that complex to understand. They want immigraion reform to pass, but not in the mostrosity of the bill that was passed. Granting amnesty is one of many reasons they voted no on the bill.
