The Clinton administration deported 12 million, Bush deported 10 million. What Cruz is saying is that every government agency that comes into contact with anyone here illegally has to report them to ICE, and they will be deported. They won't be able to get health care, welfare, drivers licenses or anything else without a government agency.

I agree with Cruz that many will self deport when all incentives are removed for them to stay. More illegals self deported during operation wetback than were deported through the program.

I agree with much of that, but that will take time and lead to things like illegals pulling their kids out of school (maybe home schooling), staying dark, and hoping the next administration in Democrat or GOPe. They won’t immediately go home.

I still don’t like the idea of government NOT checking the legality of the 25 men that hang out in front of my Home Depot every morning and don’t seem to know English.
