Defund amnesty; and refuse any nominees until rescinded
Q: How would you rescind President Obama’s executive action on immigration?
CRUZ: We should use the constitutional checks and balances that we have to rein in the abuse of power of the executive. Step #1 that I have called for is the incoming majority leader should announce if the president implements this lawless amnesty, that the Senate will not confirm any executive or judicial nominees, other than vital national security positions, for the next two years, unless and until the president ends this lawless amnesty. That is an explicit authority given to the Senate.
Or this?:

Q: Are you saying the Senate should refuse to confirm the president’s new nominee for attorney general?
CRUZ: We have to rein in the executive. In the Federalist Papers, our Framers talked about a president who would behave like a monarch. And step #2, we’ve got is the power of the purse, and we should fund one at a time the critical priorities of the federal government, but also use the power of the purse to attach riders.
THat’s right, Cruz has been vocally against “Obama’s illegal amnesty”. But he has also stated that he would legalize the illegals not here currently.
