The anchor baby situation can be fixed with simple legislation. Cruz initially supported an amendment, but seems to have softened his position on the remedy since Texas has refused babies born to illegals birth certificates.
Unlike you, Marco, he changed his in the RIGHT direction.
The only problem with that argument Marco is that you are still shilling for amnesty now.

Ted Cruz set himÂself apart from much of the 2016 GOP field—inÂcludÂing DonÂald Trump—by sayÂing on WedÂnesÂday that he’d supÂport amendÂing the ConÂstiÂtuÂtion as a way to end birthÂright citÂizenÂship.
Below is a link to Cruz’ survey answers on immigration to NumberUSA:
“Cruz has been on the record since at least 2012 saying that the U.S. should stop the policy of granting automatic citizenship to the children of illegal immigrants at birth.”

I wouldn’t call that softening the position. I think he would hope we could get it done through legislation without needing to spend the time getting an amendment passed. But there’s no doubt if that effort fails that he would support the amendment.
Thanks. Good to know.
Trump has said he wants to bring all the “good” deported illegals back in legally. And he’s talked about bringing in good foreign students and other foreign workers in. Has Trump ever talked about limiting or cutting back on legal immigration?
Absolutely Cruz would support whatever it takes to get anchor baby citizenship abolished.
Rubio lied to voters that he would never pass amnesty - but after he was elected he fought for amnesty. Rugio is a devious liar, hypocrite - and part of Gang of 8.
Think he has in 2000 book. Think have to to have some compassionate exceptions to policy. Think Sessions has good plan and Trump listens to him.
Marco, Marco, Marco.
Fighting above your weight class is never a good idea.
You do remember that Trump plays *hard* hard ball.
Just look at Jebs numbers to see your future.
Anyway, call us when the swelling goes down.
You can always get work as a cabana boy in Miami.
The cougars and rump rangers will love that pretty face of yours.
Increase prevailing wage for H-1Bs. We graduate two times more Americans with STEM degrees each year than find STEM jobs, yet as much as two-thirds of entry-level hiring for IT jobs is accomplished through the H-1B program. More than half of H-1B visas are issued for the program's lowest allowable wage level, and more than eighty percent for its bottom two. Raising the prevailing wage paid to H-1Bs will force companies to give these coveted entry-level jobs to the existing domestic pool of unemployed native and immigrant workers in the U.S., instead of flying in cheaper workers from overseas. This will improve the number of black, Hispanic and female workers in Silicon Valley who have been passed over in favor of the H-1B program. Mark Zuckerberg’s personal Senator, Marco Rubio, has a bill to triple H-1Bs that would decimate women and minorities.
Requirement to hire American workers first. Too many visas, like the H-1B, have no such requirement. In the year 2015, with 92 million Americans outside the workforce and incomes collapsing, we need companies to hire from the domestic pool of unemployed. Petitions for workers should be mailed to the unemployment office, not USCIS.
Uh, Marco, YOU changed YOUR position once YOU started running for president. YOU were on your knees performing a Lewinsky on Chucky Yucky U Schumer as soon as you got to the Senate and it was a major double FACE PALM!
Now you say your support closing borders, etc.
FU RUBIO you LYING HACK
Rubio thinks we don’t know he didn’t really change his position since he only admits to it in Spanish.
Excellent!
Let the Cuban Sugar Prince explain that reality.
I forgot about him being the “sugar prince”
Trump was challenging the press to do some research on him.
Amntn thanks for posting this. We need to bring this up every time someone tries to lie about Trump and immigration.
