Pro-Cruz super PAC hits Rubio hard on immigration, accusing him of ‘amnesty scheme’
Washington Post ^ | Nov 17 2015 | Washington Post

ew nastier Tuesday when a small super PAC supporting Cruz hit Rubio hard with a new ad accusing him of trying to concoct an "amnesty scheme" as part of a bipartisan group of senators pushing comprehensive immigration reform.

The ad, from Courageous Conservatives PAC, marks the latest broadside in a quickly escalating battle between the two Republican senators and presidential aspirants that has erupted in recent days.

"Marco Rubio teamed up with John McCain, Chuck Schumer, Lindsey Graham and Bob Menendez to push his 'Gang of Eight' amnesty scheme," says the narrator of the ad, highlighting two centrist Republicans and two Democrats Rubio worked with in 2013 to pass a sweeping immigration reform bill that included a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. The ad claims that Rubio tried to shut down Cruz's efforts to make the bill more conservative.

the amendment was a gesture intended to highlight the "hypocrisy" of Democrats' focus on a path to citizenship.
Pure lying bullshit!

cruz.senate.website

In 2013, Sen. Cruz proposed amendments to the " "Gang of 8" bill that would strengthen border security, expand green card opportunities, increase high-skilled "H1B" visas, prevent illegal aliens from receiving welfare benefits, and enforce the rule of law.
Giving them green cards makes them legal AND eligible for benefits.

So he proposed amendments to a bill he had no intention of voting for...bullshit! Was he lying then or is he lying now.

Cruz is a lying fraud.

Yet another Trumpbot gets off his meds and spews out anti-Cruz garbage that has repeatedly been debunked here on FR.
Listen, merely repeating falsehoods over and over again doesn't make it so.
Ted Cruz has more honesty, integrity and trustworthiness than you'll have if you lived to be a million.

So, you feel the same way about Jeff Sessions too. Sucks to be you.

Rubio Lied to us from his heart in Lake City, Florida 6/5/10. Live it learn it.

Another unhinged post on a Cruz thread from you. Speaking of which you have not made any pro abortion/anti pro life posts lately when it comes to Cruz. What happened?

You reflect well on Trump with some of the most over-the-top, nasty and crazy posts.

It was obvious what the Cruz amendment was all along to anyone paying any real attention.

Duncan Hunter SR was another solid border controller who often proposed things that appeared wildly pro open borders on their face but ultimately killed real open border legislation.
