I am a Cruz man but I will admit he has some problem areas this chart doesnt reveal. He voted for the Corker amendment and his position on work visas leaves much to be desired. This is cause for concern. BUT...even with this he is miles better than his competition if one looks purely to the issues.I'll post the links only for people who still want to know the facts.
Corker Bill:
Ted Cruz's Record of defending U.S. Sovereignty:
- Fought and won a landmark ruling for U.S. sovereignty in Medellin v. Texas at the U.S. Supreme Court against 90 foreign nations and the President to ensure the supremacy of U.S. legal system against encroachment by international treaties and rulings of the World Court.
- Cosponsored a resolution urging the president not to sign the UN Arms Treaty, which would have subordinated the Second Amendments rights of American citizens to global interests.
H1B Visa:
Do you know the story behind the H1B visa stuff?
It was in the middle of a battle which Ted Cruz and a few senators fought against the 'Gang of 8' amnesty bill. He offered an amendment to counteract pro-illegal immigration provisions of the amnesty bill.
I, and many people, are grateful that Ted Cruz led this fight. Otherwise, they would have approved amnesty already.
Remember this fight in 2013?
